Gateway is a design pattern, which enables authentication, routing, monitoring, A/B and other infrastructural capabilities that you can add to your web site in a service injection manner.
By service injection, you don’t need to change your code much, as there is no direct dependency between the Gateway and your web site. You just use the Gateway as a service.

Cloud Service Fundamentals (CSF) is an open source project created by Microsoft Azure CAT team. The purpose is to provide best practices on dealing with common Azure project challenges: SQL Azure Retry, SQL Sharding, Logging, Telemetry, Configuration, Caching, Server Affinity, etc.
The project can be found at http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/windowsazure/Cloud-Fundamentals-in-1a3ab1bd
Here is a decoupled and componentized version of CSF. The CSF project is decoupled into 4 components: Common Library, CSF Social Web App, Telemetry and Gateway.
