Description
Summary
Consolidate production guidance for Redis, Cosmos throughput/autoscale, monitoring, App Service scale, private networking, and operational runbooks.
Scope
- Include default deployment assumptions, required Azure Monitor permissions, Cosmos RU monitoring behavior, Redis expectations for background work, and production validation checklist.
- Validate links, screenshots, UI labels, and examples against the current SimpleChat experience.
- Keep tenant-specific secrets, IDs, and environment-specific values out of published examples.
Acceptance Criteria
- Documentation or content covers the requested scope clearly.
- Relevant links, images, and examples are reviewed for accuracy.
- Any related existing feature documentation is linked instead of duplicated.
