A. B. C. D.C.
The VMware technology that would improve storage usage in the given scenario is Horizon Published Applications.
Horizon Published Applications is a feature of VMware Horizon that allows users to access applications and desktops remotely, without the need to install them on their local device. It is a server-based computing solution that provides users with access to applications that are hosted on servers, rather than being installed locally.
In the scenario described, the company has several applications that are used by multiple organizations within the company, and these applications are currently installed in all of the different master images, making each of the master images very large. This results in a high amount of storage usage, which is inefficient and costly.
By using Horizon Published Applications, the company can host the applications on servers and make them available to all users who need them. This eliminates the need to install the applications on every master image, reducing storage usage and improving efficiency.
VMware FLEX is a deprecated technology that provided a way to distribute and manage virtual desktops across multiple locations. It is not relevant to the given scenario.
VMware Mirage is a technology that provides centralized image management and deployment for physical and virtual desktops. While it can help to manage images more efficiently, it is not designed to specifically address the storage usage issue in the given scenario.
VMware Identity Manager is a technology that provides identity management and single sign-on capabilities for applications and services. It is not directly related to the storage usage issue in the given scenario.
