How We Make Self-Hosted n8n Simple

n8n Self-Hosted Without the Usual Headaches

Zero Technical Setup
Self-hosting n8n typically means configuring Docker, SSL, PostgreSQL, Redis, and reverse proxies. With ScalaHosting, we automate all these tasks. Simply click Deploy, and you're live in 60 seconds with a ready-made configuration.

We Handle Maintenance
when you have n8n self-hosted updates, security patches, database backups, and monitoring usually fall on your shoulders. Not when ScalaHosting is around. Your workflows stay secure and up-to-date, allowing you to focus on building your infrastructure while we maintain it.

Expert Support When You Need It
Most VPS providers only support the server itself, leaving you to troubleshoot n8n issues alone. But our team knows n8n inside and out. Get real help with n8n workflows and integrations issues 24/7 - not just 'have you tried restarting?'

n8n Self-Hosted Features

icon

Free SSL Certificates

Protect your self-hosted n8n workflow data with free SSL certificates from Let's Encrypt. Your certificate is automatically applied as soon as you point your domain name to your n8n instance. The entire process is completely automated, ensuring all webhook triggers and API connections are protected without manual configuration.

icon

Queue Mode

Handle high-volume automation workflows with built-in Redis queue mode. Process thousands of workflow executions simultaneously without performance degradation. ScalaHosting can help you configure Redis, scaling your n8n self-hosted instance horizontally and handling traffic spikes effortlessly. Perfect for production environments running complex, time-sensitive automations.

icon

Temporary Doamin

Start building workflows immediately with a free temporary domain. No need to wait for DNS propagation. Test your n8n instance, configure webhooks, and validate integrations before connecting your production domain. Once ready, simply point your custom domain, and your workflows will start working seamlessly with zero downtime.

icon

Redis

Power your self-hosted n8n with Redis for enterprise-grade workflow processing. Redis enables queue mode for handling high-volume executions, improves performance for concurrent workflows, and provides robust caching to deliver faster response times. ScalaHosting can set up and manage Redis for you for production-ready scalability without any complex configurations.

icon

One-click install and updates

Deploy your n8n self-hosted environment in seconds with our one-click installer. No Docker commands, no database configuration, no SSL setup. Even better, we can handle all n8n version updates automatically with zero downtime. Your workflows stay up-to-date with the latest features and security patches while you focus on building automations.

icon

PostgreSQL

Every n8n instance can rely on a fully managed PostgreSQL database optimized for workflow execution. Unlike SQLite, PostgreSQL provides the reliability, performance, and scalability needed for enterprise automation. ScalaHosting handles database backups, optimization, and monitoring automatically so you can get production-grade data persistence without administrative overhead.

What our Customers Say About Us

From the very beginning, my experience was truly excellent. The communication was fast, clear, and incredibly helpful. What impressed me most was the level of professionalism and genuine care shown throughout the entire process. Every question I had was answered with patience, and every issue was handled promptly and efficiently. It’s rare to find a company that combines technical expertise with such a human touch. They truly go above and beyond to ensure the customer feels supported and confident, and that makes all the difference.

At first glance, most VPS options look the same to an average user. But once you experience ScalaHosting’s service, you’ll immediately see the difference. Their support team is second to none—they are incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely helpful. Every time I’ve needed help, I’ve been able to reach a real human within a minute, and the issue is handled efficiently without being transferred around or getting generic answers. If you’re looking for a reliable VPS hosting provider with top-tier customer service, go with ScalaHosting—you’ll be amazed!

ScalaHosting’s support team is the main reason I’m leaving this review. Their 24/7 support responds quickly, takes ownership of issues, and goes the extra mile to help with configuration or troubleshooting rather than just pointing to documentation. The combination of responsive support, flexible resource scaling (CPU, RAM, and storage), and fair pricing makes ScalaHosting an excellent long‑term solution for growing projects and businesses. If you are looking for a reliable managed VPS or cloud hosting provider that you can grow with over time, ScalaHosting is very easy to recommend.
