N8n on AWS (Personal use only)

Hi,

Well there are some references left and right on the forum: Run n8n docker hub image on AWS ECS Fargate with EFS (there is a link which I posted).

As far as resources, there are enough online resources for ECS and it’s not that hard to adapt for N8N specific if that’s missing

Personally I have terraform setups but I’m not willing to share/ play support (and imho knowing how to operate/support is the most important in achieving success).

As regarding to the millions being spent on building IaC setups. I highly doubt that. Usage costs for cloud resources is another story.

I think the most important part for fellow readers is that “self-hosted” doesn’t mean free. Any well built solution (as in enterprise-grade,AWS managed type resources (custom VPC per env, connectivity, alb, RDS, redis, …) on AWS will easily costs several hundreds per month only on infra to keep it powered on without usage. Following the discussions a licensing fees and cloud costs it’s good to put things clear.

Reg,
