The component that load balances itself through the use of AirWatch Cloud Messaging (AWCM) is the VMware Unified Access Gateway (option D).

VMware Unified Access Gateway (UAG) is a virtual appliance that provides secure remote access to applications in the organization's internal network. It acts as a reverse proxy for various protocols such as HTTP, HTTPS, and WebSocket. UAG provides load balancing capabilities to distribute traffic across multiple backend servers, which enhances performance and reliability.

To achieve load balancing, UAG uses the AirWatch Cloud Messaging (AWCM) service provided by VMware AirWatch. AWCM is a cloud-based messaging service that allows UAG to communicate with backend servers and receive updates on their status. UAG uses AWCM to monitor the status of backend servers and to distribute traffic based on the current load of each server.

In summary, the correct answer is option D - VMware Unified Access Gateway - as it is the component that uses AirWatch Cloud Messaging (AWCM) to load balance traffic across multiple backend servers.
