# Getting access There are different ways to provide access to the functions and procedures included in the CARTO Analytics Toolbox for Redshift: * [**Install the Analytics Toolbox in your Redshift database**:](/data-and-analysis/analytics-toolbox-for-redshift/getting-access/manual-installation-in-your-database.md) This is the most standard and easy way to get access to the Analytics Toolbox. * [**Installation on an Amazon Web Services VPC:**](/data-and-analysis/analytics-toolbox-for-redshift/getting-access/installation-in-a-aws-vpc.md) This option is only suitable for Self Hosted deployments of the CARTO platform that need to access the Analytics Toolbox functions within a VPC. {% hint style="info" %} There is a reduced version of the Analytics Toolbox that contains only **core** functionality. This version is open source and can be installed and used freely. Read [**this section**](/data-and-analysis/analytics-toolbox-for-redshift/getting-access/installation-of-the-core-package.md) if you want to learn more about it. {% endhint %} EU flag This project has received funding from the [European Union’s Horizon 2020](https://ec.europa.eu/programmes/horizon2020/en) research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 960401. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
