How to self-host n8n
Five steps, all clicks
- 1
Choose n8n. On the deploy page, open the Apps tab and pick n8n. The recommended size is filled in for you.
- 2
Review and deploy. Check the location, size and hourly price, then click Deploy server. Your account email becomes your n8n login.
- 3
Wait about a minute. The server builds in under a minute and n8n starts right after. We email you when it's ready.
- 4
Sign in. Click Open n8n on the server's page and sign in with your email and the password shown there.
- 5
Build. Create your first workflow in n8n's editor. Webhooks already work, because HTTPS is set up.
Included
Everything a production n8n needs, already set up
HTTPS from the start
A ready address with a valid certificate, so the webhooks and OAuth callbacks most apps need work without any setup.
PostgreSQL database
n8n stores workflows and execution history in PostgreSQL 16 on the same server, not a small file database.
Owner account created
The n8n owner account is set up with your email and a separate generated password, so nobody else can claim it first.
Email when it's ready
You don't need to watch the page. We email you as soon as n8n answers, without the password in the email.
Full root access
SSH in whenever you want. Add your own domain, install extra tools or run other apps next to n8n.
Snapshots and resizing
Take a snapshot before you change things, and grow CPU, RAM or disk on their own as your workflows grow.

Compared
Iotamine vs other n8n VPS providers
Most n8n VPS plans come with n8n pre-installed and no workflow limits, and so does ours. The difference is how you pay and how you size the server.
| Other providers | Iotamine n8n VPS | |
|---|---|---|
| How you pay | Usually the whole plan term upfront, shown as a monthly rate | By the hour, from your balance; no term to buy |
| Price after the first term | Often renews at a higher price than the first term | The same hourly rate every month |
| Sizing | A few fixed plans; CPU, RAM and disk go up together | Choose vCPU, RAM and disk separately, and resize each later |
| Smallest n8n server | Set by the smallest plan | 1 vCPU, 2 GB RAM, 15 GB, about ₹548/month |
| Trying it for a day | Pay for the term, then ask for a refund | Pay only for the hours the server exists |
| n8n set-up | A server template with n8n in Docker | n8n in Docker with PostgreSQL 16 and HTTPS, login created for you |
| Workflow limits | Usually unlimited | Unlimited workflows and executions |
| Data centre | Varies by provider | New Delhi, India |
| Extras | Varies by provider | Snapshots, standalone volumes and IPs, API and MCP access |
Which fits you? If you know you'll run n8n for years, a long upfront plan elsewhere can give you more RAM per rupee. If you want to start without paying for a full term, pay only for the hours you use, or size CPU, RAM and disk separately, Iotamine fits better.
Choosing a host
What to check in n8n hosting
| Question to ask | Why it matters | Iotamine |
|---|---|---|
| Is it your own server? | A shared instance mixes your workflows and credentials with other customers. | Yes, your own KVM VPS with root access |
| Is HTTPS already working? | Most apps only send webhooks and OAuth callbacks to HTTPS addresses. | Yes, from the moment n8n starts |
| Does it use a real database? | n8n's default file database struggles once you have lots of executions. | PostgreSQL 16 included |
| Do executions cost extra? | Plans priced by executions get expensive as automations grow. | No per-execution or per-workflow fees |
| Where is the data stored? | Customer data in your workflows may need to stay in India. | New Delhi, India |
| Can you size it to your workload? | AI steps need RAM; busy webhooks need CPU. | Change CPU, RAM and disk separately |
| Can you undo a bad change? | An update or an edit can break workflows you rely on. | Snapshots from the control panel |
| How is it billed? | Hourly billing lets you test without a long commitment. | Hourly, in rupees, UPI accepted |
FAQ
n8n hosting questions
n8n is an open workflow automation tool, similar to Zapier or Make, that you can run on your own server. n8n hosting means running it on a server that is always online. On Iotamine you get your own VPS with n8n already installed, with a database and an HTTPS address, ready to sign in.
Create an account, open the deploy page, choose the Apps tab and pick n8n, then click Deploy server. The server is online in under a minute and n8n is ready 1–2 minutes later. Click Open n8n on the server's page and sign in with your email and the password shown there. You don't type any commands.
No. Docker, the database, the HTTPS certificate and the n8n owner account are all set up for you. You only use n8n's own web editor. Root access is there if you want it later.
You pay for the server by the hour. The smallest size (1 vCPU, 2 GB RAM, 15 GB disk) is about ₹548 a month in New Delhi. The size we recommend (2 vCPU, 4 GB RAM, 40 GB disk) is ₹1.41 per hour, about ₹1,015 for a full month, including one IPv4 address and 8 TB of bandwidth. There is no extra charge for n8n and no per-execution fee.
n8n runs on Linux with Docker. For a few light workflows, 1 vCPU, 2 GB RAM and a 15 GB disk is enough (about ₹548 a month here). For everyday use we recommend 2 vCPU, 4 GB RAM and 40 GB of disk, which leaves room for execution history in the PostgreSQL database. Busy servers with AI agent steps do better with 4 vCPU and 8 GB RAM. The VPS also needs a public IP and an HTTPS address so webhooks work.
The manual way: install Docker, write a compose file for n8n and PostgreSQL, start the containers, set up a reverse proxy such as Caddy or Nginx, point a domain at the server, get a TLS certificate, create the n8n owner account and make sure everything restarts after a reboot. On Iotamine you skip all of that: pick n8n on the Apps tab when you deploy, and it is installed and ready to sign in about a minute after the server starts.
On Iotamine the smallest n8n VPS is 1 vCPU, 2 GB RAM and a 15 GB disk, about ₹548 a month (₹0.76/hour) in New Delhi. Because billing is hourly, there is nothing to pay upfront and you can delete it at any time; you only pay for the hours it ran.
You need a computer that is always on and reachable from the internet. You can try n8n on your laptop, but schedules stop when it sleeps and most apps can't reach its webhooks. A VPS is the usual choice: it runs 24/7, has a public IP and an HTTPS address, and costs far less than a dedicated server. The other option is n8n Cloud, where n8n runs it for you on plans priced by executions.
Most n8n VPS plans also come with n8n pre-installed and no workflow limits. They are usually fixed plans paid upfront for a term, and they often renew at a higher price. Iotamine bills by the hour with no term, lets you size vCPU, RAM and disk separately, sets up PostgreSQL, HTTPS and your login for you, and runs in New Delhi. If you want to start small or only pay for what you use, Iotamine fits better; for a multi-year commitment, a long upfront plan elsewhere can give more RAM per rupee.
n8n Cloud is run by n8n and priced by plan and monthly executions. Self-hosted n8n runs on your own server: you pay for the server, not per execution, and your data stays where the server is. On Iotamine the setup work of self-hosting is done for you, so the main difference left is that you look after updates yourself.
1 vCPU and 2 GB RAM is enough to try n8n or run a few light workflows. For everyday use we recommend 2 vCPU and 4 GB RAM with a 40 GB disk. Move to 4 vCPU and 8 GB if you run many workflows at once or use AI agent steps with large inputs. You can resize CPU, RAM and disk separately later.
It is the official n8n Docker image, self-hosted on your server. Iotamine installs and configures it; we are not affiliated with n8n GmbH, and your use of n8n is under n8n's own licence.
Yes. Your n8n works straight away on its built-in https://<your-ip>.ip.iotamine.cloud address. Because you have full root access, you can also point your own domain at the server and use that instead.
Not from us. Self-hosted n8n has no execution cap, so you can run as many workflows as your server can handle. If it gets busy, resize the server.
On your server's disk in New Delhi, India, in the PostgreSQL database that comes with it. Nobody else's workflows run on your server. You can take snapshots from the control panel at any time.
You do, as with any self-hosted n8n. It runs in Docker on your server, so updating means pulling the newer n8n image and restarting it. Take a snapshot first so you can roll back if a workflow breaks.
Yes. Everything is yours: export workflows from n8n, or copy the database. There is no lock-in and no contract.
