Akash is an affordable and easy way to get tenderduty up and running for about $2 USD per month.
Steps:
- First, you will need to create, configure, and encrypt your configuration file. See the Remote documentation for how to encrypt the file. It's a good idea to test the configuration with a local Docker container before deploying.
- You will need to create a key and acquire some $AKT tokens.
- The easiest way to deploy is using the Akash desktop app
In the dashboard click on 'Create Deployment', then select 'Empty'
Paste in the configuration and click 'Create Deployment', you will be prompted to sign a transaction.
Below is an example config, don't forget to update the PASSWORD and CONFIG variables.
Tip: using the raw link to a private Github gist is a handy way to host the config, but will require updating the CONFIG variable and re-deploying each time the config file changes.

If the transaction is successful, you will get a few bids. Select one and press 'Accept Bid'.
Once the bid has been accepted the application will change to the deployments screen showing the event log for the pod. Once it shows it as deployed the tenderduty application should be up and running.
You can get the hostname for the deployment on the deployments screen by selecting your deployment.
If you made it this far, congrats!
