Does openelb compatible with most cloud providers, such as aws, gcp, azure ..

We haven't tested this.

It's impossible for user to run openelb on cloud, because most cloud has it own way like VPC to manage it network. Both L2 like ARP/VRRP are disabled.

Yes or not. I tested OpenELB on QingCloud VMs. It works by using Layer2. But I think you would better use the Cloud LoadBalancer plugin provided by the cloud providers. OpenELB is designed for on-premises Kubernetes.
