Deploy and Host n8n v2 (Postgres + Redis + Workers) on Railway

n8n v2 (Postgres + Redis + Workers) is a distributed n8n setup using Postgres for persistence, Redis for queue coordination, and workers for scalable workflow execution.

About Hosting n8n v2 (Postgres + Redis + Workers)

Hosting n8n v2 with Postgres, Redis, and workers enables a scalable and production-ready workflow automation platform.
This setup separates concerns by using Postgres for durable state, Redis for queue-based execution, and one or more workers to process workflows asynchronously.

It is well suited for environments with moderate to high execution volume, concurrent workflows, or long-running tasks.
Railway simplifies deployment by managing networking, secrets, health checks, and scaling, allowing you to focus on building and operating workflows instead of infrastructure.

Common Use Cases

Event-driven automations using webhooks and background processing
Scheduled jobs and batch workflows with high concurrency
API integrations and data synchronization pipelines
Internal automation platforms for teams or organizations
