Comment on Amazon EC2 with Hadoop is 4 times more expensive than running on our own clusterparentComments−phaefeleOP13yYes - this is what we are doing. With this 4x cost differential however, we calculated that it takes only 6-8 months to have the hardware pay for itself, so if you plan to be in business in that time frame you are better of buying.
