Renuka, Hadoop poses very basic hardware requirements and can even run clusters off regular PCs/Laptops you may already have lying around. This is good enough to get started with for learning/testing purposes.
For deployments, the use-case would define your clusters' memory and storage needs. The page at http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/PoweredBy also contains some info that might come handy when you consider a production deployment.
