Thanks, lbendlin.  I was hoping that Azure Purview might help, but unfortunately, it doesn't give the ability to see inside the datasets or annotate the data in any way.  I am 100% okay with handling the documentation and notation (and understand it is going to be hard work), but I was hoping it might be able to do the discovery like it can do natively with SQL tables.  I will take a look at Apache Atlas and see what kind of functionality it might offer.
