Description

⚠️ Problem

People who are new to ADX/KQL may prefer SQL due to familiarity.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the linked Azure Data Explorer T-SQL and SQL Server emulation guidance. Define the documentation location and scope before adding explanations and examples for SQL users; completion should include guidance for querying with T-SQL and setting up SQL Server emulation, with an ADX dashboard treated as an optional extension.
