Currently the Integrations directory does not provide an easy way to view infrastructure related integrations for monitoring. This makes it challenging for users to easily see integrations related to observability only, without seeing integrations related to search and security use cases. This also makes it difficult to build in-product guidance to help users onboard on to an infrastructure monitoring use case.

Proposal: Introduce a new Infrastructure category and tag related integration packages accordingly. This would allow the Integrations UI to show and filter based on an Infrastructure category. We'll need to determine the scope as to what gets classified "infrastructure". E.g. tech stack, cloud services, network devices, etc.
