Self-hosting, simply explained
Your workflows run beyond your laptop.
n8n runs on an online server (VPS). Workflows can start on a schedule or when something happens—even while your laptop is closed.
A separate installation can use shared hardware. Your deployment defines the infrastructure and access.

A few useful details
Before you start.
Is this n8n Cloud?+−
No. This is a self-hosted deployment. n8n Cloud is a separate service from n8n.
Who manages updates, backups and support?+−
Your agreement assigns server and n8n maintenance, backups and workflow support. Setup alone does not include ongoing management.
Can I use my existing tools and n8n workflows?+−
We assess your tools and workflows during setup, including compatibility, credentials and permitted access.
Can my clients build or edit n8n workflows?+−
Portal access does not include n8n editing rights. Editor access, embedding and AI-assisted workflow creation each need the appropriate deployment and license.
What is included in the hosting service?+−
Your order defines hosting, resources, access and support. n8n licenses and API or AI charges are included only where expressly stated.
Does self-hosting keep all data on the server?+−
No. Connected apps and AI services may receive data. Location, permissions, retention and compliance requirements are agreed for your setup.
