# Consul Integration Program
|
||||
|
||||
The HashiCorp Consul Integration Program enables prospective partners to build integrations with HashiCorp Consul that are reviewed and verified by HashiCorp. Consul can be consumed in two ways: **self-managed**, or **HashiCorp Cloud Platform**, a hosted version of Consul operated by HashiCorp. HCP Consul is secure by default and offers an enterprise-level SLA to deploy an organization’s most important applications.

The HashiCorp Consul Integration Program enables prospective partners to build integrations with HashiCorp Consul that are reviewed and verified by HashiCorp. Consul can be consumed in three ways:
|
||||
|
||||
All integrations are available with Consul’s self-managed version. In some cases, these integrations can also be validated against HCP Consul. Upon completion of the validation with HCP Consul, a partner will receive a HCP Consul Verified badge which will be displayed on their partner page and utilized on the partner’s website as well.

- **Self-Managed**. Open source, always free
|
||||
- **HashiCorp Cloud Platform (HCP)**. A hosted version of Consul managed in the cloud
|
||||
- **Consul Enterprise**. Self-managed, with additional features for custom deployments
|
||||
|
||||
The program is intended to be largely self-service with links to resources, code samples, documentation, and clear integration steps.

## Categories of Consul Integrations

|

By leveraging Consul’s RESTful HTTP API system, prospective partners are able to build extensible integrations at the data plane, platform, and the infrastructure layer to extend Consul’s functionalities. These integrations can be performed both with the OSS (open source) version of Consul, Consul Enterprise, and HCP Consul. For features in Consul Enterprise and HCP Consul, refer to the links below:

More details can be found [here](/docs/integrate/nia-integration).

**HCP Consul**: HCP Consul is secure by default and offers an enterprise-level service level agreement (SLA) to deploy an organization’s most important applications. Sign up for HCP Consul is free and available [here](https://cloud.hashicorp.com/products/consul).

**Consul integration verification badges**: Partners will be issued the Consul Enterprise badge for integrations that work with [Consul Enterprise features](https://www.consul.io/docs/enterprise) such as namespaces. Partners will be issued the HCP Consul badge for integrations validated to work with [HCP Consul](https://cloud.hashicorp.com/docs/consul/features). Each badge would be displayed on HashiCorp’s partner page as well as be available for posting on the partner’s own website to provide better visibility and differentiation of the integration for joint customers.
