In this guide we create a Validator within an Akash Deployment.
The topology of the environment will be as follows:
- Akash Validator as a deployment and as created in the Akash Validator Deployment section of this guide
- Tendermint Key Managment System (TMKMS) used for storage of the Validators private key on a secured server. The TMKMS instance - configured in the TMKMS Setup section of this guide - may be created on any secure server of your choosing. The TMKMS server must have connectivity to the Akash Validator.
