hadoop on rackspace

Hi,
I am wondering what kind of hadoop cluster I can get on rackspace for
a 2k/month budget (#servers, size of each server)? btw, any pointer to
instruction on how to set up hadoop cluster or cloudera version on
rackspace is really appreciated.

Regards,
Shawn

For your latter question, perhaps using Apache  Whirr is the easiest
way out: http://whirr.apache.org/

See http://ctovision.com/2012/01/hadoop-quickstart-use-whirr-to-automate-standup-of-your-distributed-cluster-on-rackspace/
for one post on how to do it.
