Research direction
Start with the linked Infrastructure Monitoring installation topic and compare its Elastic/Kibana and Beats instructions with the corresponding APM and Uptime content. Review the setup experience work mentioned in the issue, including the free cloud trial option; done means a single clear, consistent instruction set suitable for reuse across Observability products.

Description
Topic https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/infrastructure/guide/current/install-infrastructure-monitoring.html
This is currently inconsistent with similar content in APM and Uptime, but I think both variants have good and bad points: both seemed good in parts and confusing in others.
It would be good to tie this section into the work that @debadair is doing on providing a clear and consistent set-up experience, and also to ensure that new users are presented with a prominent option to get started easily using a free cloud trial.
I've separated the Elastic and Kibana installation out from the Beats installation (also in this topic), because this part is common to all the Observability products. I think it should be possible to produce a single common set of instructions, which can then eventually be reused by all Observability products.
