I have found this link
https://github.com/angelomilan/ethereum-guides/pull/6/files

I don't know if it is usable but it seems like they have added support for these Elastic GPUs

I don't think it would be profitable, because
1) ElasticGPU is some kind of network-attached GPU, so it won't work out of the box with current mining software as it's not recognized as a regular GPU
2) If I take 8GB option, $0.4/hour, so $9.6/day, no card can give you such amount of money par day, even 1080 Ti
