## Choose a learning path

Select the integration that matches your environment.

> **Note:** A [Grafana Cloud account](/signup/cloud/connect-account) is helpful for hands-on practice, but completely optional. You can read through any learning path to understand the deployment process without deploying yourself.

## Looking for a different integration?

We have learning paths for the integrations above. For HAProxy, SNMP, Istio, or any of the 100+ other integrations, use the [integration reference documentation](/docs/grafana-cloud/monitor-infrastructure/integrations/integration-reference/). The docs include prerequisites, configuration snippets, and troubleshooting tips.
