Find My Data — roadmap

What is built, and what the design documents call for next. Grounded in find_my_data_handoff/FIND_MY_DATA_MVP_DELIVERY_PLAN.md §6 (backlog) and §10 (releases), reconciled against the actual code. Priority key: P0 in the coherent slice, P1 next MVP work, P2 future.

Built (this repository)

  • Platform kernel (auth, capability/domain authz, hash-chained audit, redacting logger, metrics registry), governance/onboarding, provider-neutral AI gateway, durable staged scan pipeline with cache invalidation, explainable ensemble + clusters + risk + findings, review loop with propagation, typed Analyst, remediation state machine.
  • Live Microsoft Graph connector (read) — validated read-only against CDX (ADR-0013).
  • Broad extraction — text family, DOCX/XLSX/PPTX, HTML, RTF, best-effort PDF, behind a magic-byte-sniffing registry (validated live: 172/174 CDX files).
  • Live Purview label read/write path — gated, with a separate remediation identity (assignSensitivityLabel).
  • Distributed scanner fleet — registration, heartbeat, capability advertisement, offline takeover, fleet health.
  • Observability — counters/gauges/latency histograms surfaced in Operations.
  • Admin setup wizard + settings + connector probe (/setup) — validated live.
  • Change notifications — subscription lifecycle, clientState-verified webhook receiver, delta reconciliation, freshness metrics; dev simulator validated live.
  • Governed model-release pipeline (/models) — dataset curation → consented cluster-aware snapshot → evaluate → SoD approve → promote/rollback; ran on live CDX data.
  • Embeddings + approximate vector index — provider-neutral embeddings, cosine LSH, owner-scoped semantic-neighbors; validated live (172 embeddings).
  • Teams connector — channels/messages, file→driveItem canonicalization (no double identity); mock-validated, live gated.
  • Exchange connector — selected mailboxes, per-folder delta, attachment↔ SharePoint similarity (not identity); mock-validated, live gated.
  • Azure deployment IaC (infra/main.bicep) — managed identity, Key Vault, Container App; secrets never in the template.
  • Control plane — signed entitlement (offline grace + usage limits) + allowlisted fleet-health telemetry with opt-out.

Release A — Microsoft 365 pilot hardening (P1)

Release B — governed learning & enterprise operations (P1)

Release C — remediation & broader evidence (P2)

  • Ticket integrations; permission-change proposals/approvals (draft-only in MVP); external ticketing (PRODUCT §6.6, SECURITY §15.2).
  • Richer activity/security telemetry; DLP/Purview/SIEM signal ingestion (activity currently surfaced as not_enabled in risk coverage).
  • Authoritative-copy & ROT campaigns; regulatory/GRC validation views.
  • OCR / image understanding for scanned PDFs and images (today: honest unsupported); layout/visual fingerprints (ARCH §7.1–7.2).
  • Opt-in advanced/customer-defined Analyst skills.

Release D — structured & hybrid ecosystem (P2)

  • Database/warehouse/object/file-system connector SDK; structured schema/sampling/synthetic tables (ARCH §7.3, DATA §4.3). Canonical contracts already admit structured sources.
  • Workday/PeopleSoft & other SaaS connectors; on-prem/AWS/GCP scanner footprints.
  • Lineage integrations; modality-specific models.

Cross-cutting platform work

  • Admin setup wizard UI + in-UI connector/source configuration + settings (retention profile, AI provider, evidence level). Onboarding is API-driven today.
  • Distributed traces across job/item/stage/model/source (metrics + correlation IDs exist; traces do not).
  • Backup/restore + projection-rebuild runbooks; documented RPO/RTO; customer-managed keys; private endpoints (ARCH §15).
  • Postgres / Blob / Service Bus / AI Search implementations of the store role interfaces (ADR-0003) as scale demands — triggers in docs/capacity-model.md.

Commercial web & control plane (handoff update-001)

Applying update-001 (ADR-0015). The deployment-side licensing, the vendor Control service (ADR-0016), the Account portal (ADR-0017), entitled downloads + supply chain (ADR-0018), and the support portal + diagnostic bundles (ADR-0019) are built; the remaining surfaces (isolated demo, protected dev env) and a real ticketing integration are staged. Production IdP for the portal is now built (Clerk, ADR-0020) — it needs only the operator’s Clerk app + FMD_CLERK_* config. The eight cross-cutting/Release-A/B items above are now built. The remaining highest-value work, per the design docs:
  1. Sites.Selected migration + live change-sequence validation on CDX — the one read-connector item still on Sites.Read.All; validate live deltas (edit/rename/permission/label/delete/resync) and, with a public webhook URL, real Graph change-notification subscriptions end-to-end.
  2. Live Teams/Exchange validation — the connectors are built and gated; the next step is consenting ChannelMessage.Read.All / Mail.Read (protected APIs) on a test tenant and running them live, as was done for SharePoint.
  3. Entra OIDC sign-in on the existing production-lockout seam + directory sync for owner suggestions.
  4. Postgres / Blob / Service Bus implementations of the store-role interfaces (ADR-0003) + a separate worker Container App, per the scale triggers in docs/capacity-model.md and the infra/ scale-path notes.
  5. OCR / image understanding for scanned PDFs and images (today: honest unsupported), and the structured/DB connector SDK (Release D).
