A home for n8n and the services it connects to
n8n is at its best when it orchestrates everything from SaaS tools and internal APIs to AI agents. Defang gives you a single deployment plane where n8n and those services live together in your own cloud account.
Promote existing Docker setups
If you already run n8n with Docker, you are most of the way there. Bring your Compose file, add any supporting services, and let Defang turn it into a secure cloud deployment.
Orchestrate managed inference safely
When n8n and your services run in your own AWS or GCP accounts with Defang, workflows can call managed inference such as Bedrock or Vertex AI while traffic stays within your cloud perimeter and under your existing IAM policies.
Stay within your cloud perimeter
With BYOC, the n8n editor, its database, and all connected services run inside your AWS or GCP account, using your security posture and network boundaries.
How it works
Defang builds on the way n8n is already deployed with Docker and Compose and adds cloud automation for you.
Describe your n8n stack in Compose
Define the n8n container, Postgres database, and any supporting services (Redis, proxies, agent APIs) in docker-compose.yml. This becomes the blueprint for all environments.
Deploy with the Defang CLI
From your repository, run:
defang compose up --provider=aws
Defang builds images, provisions infrastructure, and exposes the n8n editor via HTTPS, while keeping internal services only accessible inside the stack.
Expand as your automation grows
Add new services and agents over time by updating your Compose file. Defang makes it easy to spin up additional environments for testing, staging, or per‑team instances.
