Hello Akash Community!

We are putting this proposal to the vote for funding to our fellow community member Luna. He is an active community member working on the Akash Terraform Provider.

The Akash Terraform Provider helps streamline web2 and web3 interoperability by leveraging Terraform's best features for managing infrastructure as code. In addition, it allows users to interact with the Akash ecosystem fast using HashiCorp Configuration Language(HCL) or any of the popular programming languages. This tool is helping Akash integrate seamlessly with Web2 components and introducing Akash to this popular enterprise community.

Luna provides a valuable contribution to the growth of Akash Network. So far, this tool has more than 6,000+ downloads. The funds will be used to build new services to support the Akash Terraform Provider and build Terraform modules for applications to run on Akash. It will also integrate with other ecosystem partner applications such as Praetor. In addition, users can write infrastructure as code and allow versioning of infrastructure configuration on Akash. This tool helps onboard a new market share of web2 developers by enabling them to keep using Terraform and reduce the efforts to migrate to Akash, unlocking fast and automatic deployments to avoid repetitive workflows and complex management. With this tool, web2 and web3 infrastructure code can live side by side and seamlessly integrate. Other developers are also welcome to reuse the Terraform modules. This tool is open-source for transparency.

Currently, the Akash Community wallet has around 1.29 million AKT. So we are asking to fund 65,000 AKT from that wallet to Luna.
