Free Hadoop Development Environment: Karmasphere Studio

Karmasphere Studio logo Last week we told you about this tutorial to get started with Hadoop. If you want to go further with Hadoop, you might want a dedicated development environment. Karmasphere offers both a free “community edition” and a paid professional version of its Hadoop development environment for prototyping, development and debugging of Hadoop jobs. Has anyone used it? What did you think?
