Selecting the right Windows 2012 Guest OS

$

Hi quick question,

 

We wish to deploy multiple (a lot more than two) Windows 2012 Guests across multiple hosts.  I already know we need to "apply" Windows 2012 Datacenter licenses for the host CPUs to ensure we can run an unlimited number of guests OSs.

 

My question is - on the guest OS that will run in VMware does anyone know if I should be using the Windows Server 2012 Datacenter or Standard edition?

 

Just to reiterate, I have read the official Microsoft docs and know that I need Datacenter licenses for the hosts, but it just states i can than run multiple Windows guest OSs.  Just don't know which edition to choose when creatring the template for all the guests.

 

Thanks in advance for any help.

 

Tom
