It says there say you get m1.micro instances (m1.tiny is probably the equivalent openstack term). 750 hours of Amazon EC2 Linux† Micro Instance usage (613 MB of memory and 32-bit and 64-bit platform support) – enough hours to run continuously each month* -> Yoinks. 613 MB sounds a bit tight for running a complete zk+hadoop+hbase stack. I suppose if you split it up over multiple nodes you could get somewhere. 30 GB of Amazon Elastic Block Storage, plus 2 million I/Os and 1 GB of snapshot storage* -> yay.
