I remember discussing planned production in class, but I don't think that's what we're looking for in this context. It feels like it’s more about what’s already been ordered.

This seems like a straightforward question about the recommended installation method for Avaya Aura Contact Center. I'll carefully read through the options and select the one that best matches the description.

Option B looks correct. Xdebug provides detailed debugging information which adds significant overhead during testing.
