vCSA:В The bundled PostgreSQL database now supports environments of up to 1000 hosts and 10,000 virtual machines which will suffice in most cases.In case of larger environments, use a Microsoft SQL or Oracle DBMS for better scalability and performance. vCenter Server for Windows: For environments with no more than 20 hosts and 200 virtual machines, use the bundled PostgreSQL database.This equally applies to both vSphere versions 6.0 and 6.5. ThereвЂ™s a difference in terms ofВ the database options available when installing vCenter Server especially in terms of scalability. UPDATE: vCSA 6.5 now runs on VMwareвЂ™s propriety Photon OS and not on SUSE Linux. I covered the installation of vCSA 6.0 hereВ and vCSA 6.5 here. The appliance version (vCSA), on the other hand, is based on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 64-bit and comes as an OVF appliance lock, stock and barrel ready for use.

The most glaring difference, asВ implied by its name, is that vCenter Server for Windows runs exclusively on a Microsoft Windows server operating system. IвЂ™ll also touch briefly on the features common to both and those exclusive to vCSA 6.5 as well as the pros and cons of going for a specific version. This post highlights the similarities and differences between vCenter Server for Windows and vCenter Server Appliance (vCSA) for both vSphere 6.0 and 6.5. UPDATE: This post has been updated (20-July-2017) to reflectВ the changes in vSphere 6.5
