Our free tier will be:

26 CPU cores, 15 GB RAM, 60GB of SSD storage 1536 GPU cores, and 2GB RAM

for a certain amount of time. If you'd like a reserve instance, or more power/storage/throughput, we'll charge more accordingly.

Most typical usage of Hadoop I've seen (so far) is people dumping many terabytes of data into HDFS and then analyzing it. But maybe you're more focused on distributed computing than the "big data" side of it.
