# Packages and extensions

Skip the manual setup. Coralogix ships two kinds of prebuilt building blocks so you can go from a new account to monitored infrastructure in minutes: **integration packages** connect a data source in one guided flow, and **extension packages** layer ready-made alerts, dashboards, parsing rules, and saved views on top of it.

## Which one do you need?

### [Integration packages](https://coralogix.com/docs/integration-packages)

[Connect a data source such as AWS or GCP in one guided flow, with the API key, endpoint, and application and subsystem set for you.](https://coralogix.com/docs/integration-packages)

[`Start here to send data`](https://coralogix.com/docs/integration-packages)

### [Extension packages](https://coralogix.com/docs/extension-packages)

[Deploy a curated set of alerts, dashboards, parsing rules, and saved views for a source, so monitoring works out of the box.](https://coralogix.com/docs/extension-packages)

[`Add value on top of data`](https://coralogix.com/docs/extension-packages)

A typical path is to connect a source with an **integration package**, then deploy the matching **extension package** to get instant monitoring for it.
