To make a virtual datacenter read only for standard users, assign the ENTERPRISE_VIEWER role to the virtual datacenter. This role will only apply to users that do not have the "No VDC restriction" privilege. So a user with an ENTERPRISE_ADMIN role would be able to deploy VMs as usual.
The Roles tab in the virtual datacenter will only display if the user has the "Manage roles" privilege. By default, this privilege is only assigned to the CLOUD_ADMIN role.

The Default roles tab will only display when editing Allowed datacenters when the user has the Manage VDC default roles privilege. By default this privilege is only assigned to the CLOUD_ADMIN role.
