A question about vCenter.

Hello,

I want to install vCenter 6.7 and add my ESXi hosts to it, but which "Deployment Type" I must select, "Embedded Platform Services Controller" or "External Platform Services Controller"?

Thanks.

Embedded Platform Service Controller.

External Platform Services Controller will be deprecated soon.

Regardless of external deployment will be deprecated in a newer release of vSphere ASAP, the embedded deployment is the better choice because there is a simple structure and implementing in the virtual infrastructure. Choosing the external PSC structure needs more management and provide more complexity in design.
