I am approving because the content seems fine, however I noted that a couple of the images appear to be missing the nightly images. I am not sure if this is something we should remove on our end or if there is a mistake on the deployments (maybe there will be one made tonight and it's just missing at the moment 🤷 ). Let's confirm before merging.

hey @aidehn would you be ok to give this a engineer review? i want to make sure i understood the changes for each product line |
| | `latest` / `stable` | Tagged releases only (e.g. `2026.05.0`) | Most users — stable, release-quality builds | | ||
| | `dev` | Every merged commit on `main` | Users who need the latest unreleased changes | | ||
| | `nightly` | Scheduled nightly builds | CI pipelines that need a fresh build on a regular cadence | | ||
| | `YYYY.MM.patch` (e.g. `2026.05.0`) | Never (pinned) | Fully reproducible environments where no changes are acceptable | |

Azure is an odd one since they don't have a tagged release process their definitions for each are different!
- For Azure,
latest==dev- it is the latest commit frommain - There are no
stabletags since they don't support a tagged release process (stable is only updated in these scenarios) - There are also no
YYYY.MM.patch,YYYY.MMandYYYYtags for the same reason as the above
So, overall we just need latest, nightly and dev and dev == latest!

Thank you for the documentation updates!! I left a few comments about the wording of relating bug fixes with patch releases + the Azure tag definitions (as they are quite different than AWS and Snowflake!) Once done I think we should be good to go 🎉
