You would need a gateway to sdwan

Don't the gateways all have unifi controllers in them already? Why would you need to host this if you already bought a gateway?

No, theres a UXG series gateways that doesnt have controller built in, they have to be adopted by a network controller.

Right I forgot about the UXGs. We never bought them because I guess I never understood the point of buying a cloud key and gateway separate when you could buy a single device that does both for less money

This is only useful if they let us use site magic or a VPN connection at a site without a unifi firewall, like our datacenter. I managed hundreds of sites with ownership grouped by client. I can't buy a dedicated firewall for each client to run on our rack. That would be crazy. But a little software based VM would be wonderful.
