n8n on MassiveGRID PaaS
n8n is a workflow automation platform that connects more than 400 applications and APIs with a visual editor, and adds AI agent nodes for building multi-step LLM workflows. The MassiveGRID PaaS package self-hosts n8n with a PostgreSQL database in one click, giving you unlimited executions with data kept in your own environment.
Both buttons open the MassiveGRID PaaS dashboard with n8n pre-selected. The trial needs no credit card.

What is n8n?
n8n sits between Zapier-style simplicity and writing code: drag nodes for Slack, Gmail, HubSpot, Postgres, HTTP requests and hundreds more, add logic with branches, loops and JavaScript or Python steps, and trigger flows from webhooks, schedules or app events. Its AI nodes let you compose agents with tools, memory and vector stores using OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Ollama and other providers.
Self-hosting removes per-execution pricing and keeps credentials and data private. The package deploys n8n on a Node.js server with a PostgreSQL database for workflows and execution history, sets up authentication and HTTPS, and enables vertical auto-scaling so bursts of webhook traffic are handled. MassiveGRID also offers a dedicated n8n hosting service with managed operations.
What the n8n Package Deploys
Marketplace packages are not bare container images. One click provisions a complete, production-shaped environment on MassiveGRID infrastructure.
- Node.js application server: A Node.js container running the current n8n release with process management and the editor served over HTTPS.
- PostgreSQL database: A linked PostgreSQL container for workflows, credentials and execution logs, more robust than n8n's default SQLite.
- Persistent storage: Binary data, custom nodes and configuration on persistent disk with snapshots.
- Authentication and webhooks: Owner account set at install; webhook URLs on the platform subdomain or your own domain via Let's Encrypt.

Why Run n8n on MassiveGRID PaaS
Built for uptime. n8n runs on MassiveGRID's high-availability platform, where every environment is covered by a 100% uptime SLA. Nodes live on redundant hosts, storage is replicated, and failed containers are restarted or migrated automatically.
Pay for what you use. Billing is hourly and per cloudlet (128 MiB RAM plus 400 MHz CPU). Vertical auto-scaling adds and removes cloudlets as load changes, so a quiet n8n environment costs a few dollars a month and a busy one grows without a migration. Full details are on the PaaS page.
Your choice of jurisdiction. Deploy in New York, London, Frankfurt or Singapore and keep data inside the region your users or regulators require. MassiveGRID is ISO 9001 certified and GDPR compliant, and has run hosting infrastructure since 2003.
No lock-in. The package is a standard Jelastic Packaging Standard (JPS) manifest. You keep root-level access to the containers, can export the manifest, and can move the workload to any other Jelastic-compatible platform or to your own servers at any time.
