Thank you for sporting this @Rajeev M. It was missing on the session, a simple rule to follow is If it's for your lab environment and you will never exceed 10 ESX host or 100 VM's use Tiny If it's for dev and you may increase this limit always go for the higher option. same applies for medium if there is a chance that you will go over this limit always chose the higher option Large. and if you may exceed the limit for large chose X-Large. Also, be mindful that more resources are required as you choose the bigger deployment.

Installation options:
Install - for a new fresh installation
