On premise setup n8n (concurrent execution issue)

hi everybody,

If I setup n8n on premise on my local server, may I know any other limitation compare with on n8n cloud? such as “Concurrent" executions will be limited to on premise or NOT? or no limited on concurrent executions , just based on my hardware & bandwidth ?

Please help. :blush:

Regards,

Alan

Hi, self-hosted n8n has no default concurrent execution limits. You’re only limited by your hardware and bandwidth.

n8n Cloud has plan-based limits (5-200 concurrent executions depending on tier), but self-hosted runs unlimited by default. You can optionally set N8N_CONCURRENCY_PRODUCTION_LIMIT as an environment variable if you want to control it yourself.

Hey @Alan_Cheung1 your self hosted instance will only be limited by the kind of hardware you are putting it on with, and also the Tunneling service you are using like CloudFlare and Ngrok as concurrent processes wont be noticed but the amount of requests you can make and the tunneling bandwidth you have will help you get better performance , hope this helps!
