Hi there,
Thanks for your question! According to our CSR team, we’re actively working on Azure use cases right now, as CSR will support MSFT Hyper-V hypervisor in March 2014. The typical use case is an enterprise that uses the CSR as its own gateway to securely connect its premises to the Azure cloud, while offering network services such as VPN, Firewall, and NAT. Another use case is a telecom service provider (SP), who offers managed connectivity service to customers, using a CSR as a gateway to connect its customers to the Azure cloud. The CSR would be offering the same services as mentioned earlier – VPN, Firewall, NAT – plus QoS and IP SLAs.

In regards to Cloudstack, an open source cloud computing platform supported by Citrix, the CSR is not currently supporting it yet but it’s definitely on the roadmap. And the use cases would be similar to that of Azure.
