I have already tried using a provider with Plesk, Docker Compose, and n8n, but found that Plesk caused more problems than it solved. Which infrastructure combination (VPS setup, management tools?, etc.) works well for running n8n (with Python), a mail server, and other small projects? Can you recommend any good tutorials or guides for setting up such an environment securely and efficiently?
Thanks a lot
hello @Sascha
For me the best option is to use docker, as it makes the n8n an OS independent and I can run it where I would like to. With ease of tuning and settings management.
There are no best providers. It always depends on the task your are trying to achieve. For bunch of small projects docker compose is the most predictable and less time-consuming in comparison to other options (os-level install / ansible / kubernetes). As for the infrastracture… it completelly depends on the conditions that are critical for the particular case (instance expenses, reliability, ease of configuration, latency, additional features and so on)
