Summary

Implements the documentation follow-ups agreed in the May 18 sync.

Terminology

  • Reworded public docs to refer to "data consumers" instead of "customers". The public GitHub repo is a Microsoft-owned public resource, not an Azure-customer-facing asset; operators are neither Microsoft customers nor partners in the strict sense.
  • Removed the "Do not deploy into Microsoft internal or production tenants" line from README.md.

Slim public docs

  • docs/architecture.md rewritten: trimmed prescriptive operator content; kept high-level overview, components, deployment flow, security boundaries.
  • docs/faq.md rewritten: cut from 255 to ~60 lines; kept General / Deployment / Security / Contributing essentials.
  • docs/consumer-ingestion-guide.md rewritten: kept only the manifest, index-file, and checkpointing contracts. Removed references to internal platform pipeline names (KustoOrchestratorPipeline, KustoIngestionPipeline, etc.) and broken ../resources/... links.

Relocate / split

  • New docs/extending-the-starter-kit.md extracted from the old "Guide 2: Enhance the Starter Kit" - keeps the Fabric / SQL / Snowflake substitution patterns under a clearer name.
  • Deleted docs/implementation-checklist.md - internal operator checklist; will be relocated to the CPDM platform repo.

Terminology pass beyond docs/

  • Minor reword in CONTRIBUTING.md, SECURITY.md, SUPPORT.md for consistency.

CHANGELOG

  • Unreleased entry documenting the rewording, content trim, new file, and deletion.

Out of scope

  • FDL sample data curation / schema JSON generation.
  • Moving the relocated docs into the CPDM platform repo.

Review

…ntent

- Replace 'customer' with 'data consumer' (and similar) across public docs to reflect the audience of this Microsoft-owned public repo (operators/data consumers, not Azure customers).

- Trim docs/architecture.md and docs/faq.md to generic starter-kit content; remove deep operator-specific guidance that belongs in the internal platform repo.

- Trim docs/consumer-ingestion-guide.md to the manifest/index/checkpoint contracts and drop references to internal pipeline names (KustoOrchestratorPipeline, etc.).

- Extract the 'Enhance the Starter Kit' section into new docs/extending-the-starter-kit.md (Fabric/SQL/Snowflake substitution patterns).

- Delete docs/implementation-checklist.md from the public repo; it will be relocated to the internal platform repo.
