Code Creator FlowForge delivers a preconfigured n8n automation server on AWS with PostgreSQL and Docker, ready to launch workflows in minutes via a visual editor.
FlowForge Automation Suite with n8n Express by Code Creator
FlowForge Automation Suite with n8n Express is a preinstalled, preconfigured automation engine ready to launch on AWS with a single deployment. Built on the open-source n8n workflow automation platform - a source-available tool developed by n8n GmbH in Berlin and first released in 2019 - this AMI packages n8n alongside PostgreSQL, Docker, and an HTTPS-ready architecture into a production-ready stack.
Code Creator charges apply for the integrated n8n and PostgreSQL automation stack, preconfigured Docker deployment, HTTPS-ready architecture, workflow environment configuration, and AWS Marketplace AMI engineering.
What You Get Out of the Box
n8n (latest version): A visual, node-based workflow editor that lets you build automations by wiring together applications, services, and AI models - with the option to add custom JavaScript or Python when needed
PostgreSQL database engine: A fast, reliable database for storing workflows, execution logs, and credentials
Docker and Docker Compose: Preinstalled and configured for easy updates, extensions, and container management
Web-based GUI: Build, monitor, and debug workflows in real time from any browser
HTTPS-ready architecture: Add TLS encryption using Nginx Proxy Manager or a domain of your choice
Who This Is Built For
n8n is widely recognized as a flexible, self-hostable alternative to services like Zapier and Make. With over 300 integrations out of the box - including Slack, Gmail, Discord, GitHub, AWS services, Airtable, PostgreSQL, and more - FlowForge Automation Suite supports a wide range of automation scenarios:
DevOps and engineering teams: Automate CI/CD notifications, monitor GitHub repositories, and trigger Slack alerts when pull requests are opened or builds fail
Startups and small businesses: Sync data between CRMs, databases, and SaaS tools without building custom middleware
Educators and bootcamps: Teach no-code and low-code automation concepts using a hands-on, visual workflow builder in classroom or workshop settings
Operations teams: Build custom alert systems, chatbots, and notification pipelines that connect internal tools to external services
Cost-conscious teams: Replace multiple paid SaaS automation subscriptions with a single self-hosted stack under your full control
Key Capabilities
Visual drag-and-drop editor for building workflows without writing boilerplate code
Custom code support with JavaScript and Python nodes for advanced logic
Self-hosted deployment giving you full control over your data, credentials, and execution environment
Docker Compose architecture enabling straightforward updates and the ability to extend the stack with additional services
Deployment Overview
This AMI arrives with n8n, PostgreSQL, and Docker Compose preconfigured and ready to run. After launching your EC2 instance, the n8n web interface is accessible via your browser. HTTPS can be configured by adding Nginx Proxy Manager or pointing your own domain with a TLS certificate.
About the Upstream n8n Platform
n8n is developed by n8n GmbH, founded by Jan Oberhauser in Berlin. The platform is published under a source-available "fair-code" license that allows self-hosting and modification. n8n topped the 2025 JavaScript Rising Stars ranking by GitHub stars added over the year, reflecting strong developer community adoption and momentum.
Get Started
Whether you are a seasoned developer building complex multi-step integrations or a no-code beginner connecting your first two apps, FlowForge Automation Suite makes it straightforward to bring automation to life on your own AWS infrastructure. Launch the AMI, open the n8n editor in your browser, and start building workflows today.
Highlights
Preconfigured Automation Stack - Ready to Deploy: This AMI ships a fully integrated Docker stack with n8n and PostgreSQL preconfigured and tested on AWS. Instead of manually installing Docker, configuring Docker Compose, setting up a PostgreSQL database, and wiring n8n to use it, you launch a single AMI and the entire automation server is operational.
Visual Workflow Builder With 300+ Integrations: n8n's node-based editor lets you build complex automations by dragging and connecting nodes - no coding required. Connect to over 300 apps and services, or extend workflows with custom JavaScript or Python. As a self-hostable alternative to hosted tools like Zapier and Make, this deployment gives you full control over your data and workflow logic on your own AWS infrastructure.
Self-Hosted on AWS With Full Data Control: Run your entire automation platform on your own EC2 instance with no data leaving your environment unless you choose to send it. PostgreSQL stores all workflow data locally within the instance. The Docker Compose architecture allows you to manage, update, and customize each component independently, giving development teams and educators a flexible foundation for workflow automation.
AWS Marketplace now accepts line of credit payments through the PNC Vendor Finance program. This program is available to select AWS customers in the US, excluding NV, NC, ND, TN, & VT.
Pricing is based on actual usage, with charges varying according to how much you consume. Subscriptions have no end date and may be canceled any time.
Additional AWS infrastructure costs may apply. Use the AWS Pricing Calculator to estimate your infrastructure costs.
If you are an AWS Free Tier customer with a free plan, you are eligible to subscribe to this offer. You can use free credits to cover the cost of eligible AWS infrastructure. See AWS Free Tier for more details. If you created an AWS account before July 15th, 2025, and qualify for the Legacy AWS Free Tier, Amazon EC2 charges for Micro instances are free for up to 750 hours per month. See Legacy AWS Free Tier for more details.
You pay by the hour for the EC2 instance size you run this software on. Each dimension maps to a specific AWS instance type, so pricing scales with the compute power you choose. The general-purpose t2, t3, and t3a families cover small workloads through larger ones, with sizes from nano up to 2xlarge. The c1, c3, and c4 families target compute-heavy tasks. The m5n family suits larger memory and network needs, up to 8xlarge. You pick the instance size that fits your workload; larger sizes cost more per hour.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What does one billed hour cover, and what do I get for it?
You are billed for each hour the software runs on your chosen EC2 instance type. One hour equals one running instance-hour of that specific size. The instance provides a pre-built, ready-to-deploy image of the software, provisioned for AWS and configured for instant use.
Am I charged when the instance is stopped or paused?
The software charge meters running time only. When an instance is stopped, the hourly software fee stops accruing. Underlying AWS costs, such as storage for a stopped instance, may still apply separately. To avoid software charges, stop the instance when it is not in use.
If I move to a larger instance size, does my hourly rate change?
Yes. Each instance type has its own hourly rate. Switching to a size with more compute, memory, or network capacity applies that size's rate for the hours it runs. You are billed only for the size actually running at any given time, not a blended rate.

An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.
