Which version of Hadoop should I use?

Hadoop currently has three branches: 0.2x, 1.x, and 2.x. What are the arguments in favor of using one over another?

One way to deal with the way too many versions of hadoop that are available out there is to go with the Cloudera offerings. Products like these make it easier on you and you don't have to worry too much about configurations.

Hadoop recently changed its Map/Reduce implementation (now called Yarn). That may be one reason to go for a relatively new Version.

If you want to use Hadoop in conjunction with other, related projects like HBase the version vector is not quite trivial.

You may want to look at Cloudera's offering (I am not affiliated with Cloudera). They offer distributions from which you can pick your subset of tools that fit to each other. And of course they also offer professional services.
