Deploy & Configure n8n Server

I need a production-ready n8n instance set up from scratch so I can start automating a series of data-processing workflows. The goal is to have a secure, always-on server where I can quickly build flows that pull, transform, and push data between internal systems and a handful of external services.

Here’s what I’m looking for:
• Clean installation of the latest stable n8n release (Docker or bare-metal is fine—whatever you’re most comfortable maintaining).
• SSL, basic auth, and environment variables configured so the editor and webhooks stay private.
• Persistent storage for credentials and executions; Postgres or SQLite is acceptable as long as it survives container restarts.
• A few sample data-processing workflows set up and documented so I can use them as templates.
• Brief hand-off guide covering backups, updates, and how to add additional nodes or custom scripts later.

If you’ve already deployed n8n in cloud environments (AWS, DigitalOcean, Linode, etc.) and can turn this around quickly, please let me know your preferred stack and timeline.

At the moment i am doing one app and its 95% finished i need help to sort it completly, and if all good we can arange long terms cooperation
