Activepieces Self-Hosted Setup in Cambridge

Setting up self-hosted Activepieces for Cambridge organisations, where code steps execute whatever somebody writes in them. Flows can run arbitrary JavaScript, so the isolation between that code and the host is a security decision — particularly where several teams build flows on a shared instance.

Why this comes up

The problem

Anybody who can build a flow can execute code on the server the platform runs on.

What you get

What we deliver

  • Execution isolated so code steps cannot reach the host or other workloads
  • Workers separated from the main instance where volume or isolation requires it
  • Who may create flows restricted, since that grants code execution
  • Database configured externally with backups tested by restoring
  • Secrets managed by the platform rather than written into code steps
  • Version pinned and upgrades applied deliberately, as the project moves quickly

Activepieces Self-Hosted Setup in Cambridge — common questions

Why is code execution a concern?
Because building a flow becomes running code on your infrastructure. That is fine when the people building are trusted and the execution is isolated, and it is a genuine exposure on a shared instance where access was granted casually.
How is isolation achieved?
By running execution in a sandbox with restricted access to the filesystem, the network and the host. The platform provides mechanisms for this, and confirming which is in use — rather than assuming the default is restrictive — is the actual task.
Who should be able to build flows?
Fewer people than have accounts, unless isolation is solid. Access to create flows is effectively access to run code, so on a shared instance it deserves the same consideration as any other permission granting execution on your infrastructure.
How should upgrades be handled?
Pinned and deliberate. The project releases frequently, so running an unpinned image means an upgrade arrives whenever a container restarts — which is how a working instance changes behaviour overnight with nobody having decided anything.
Do you work with businesses across Cambridgeshire?
Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout East of England, including Cambridge and the surrounding Cambridgeshire area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
What kind of Cambridge businesses do you usually work with?
Deep-tech and biotech clients bring genuinely technical briefs, often involving data pipelines, instrumentation or research tooling. Beyond that we work across Technology, Life Sciences, Research, Higher Education and Biotech.
Do you cover the areas around Cambridge?
Yes — we work throughout East of England, including Norwich, Milton Keynes, London, Northampton. Cambridge is an urban area of roughly 150,000+, and we take on work across the wider Cambridgeshire region rather than the city boundary alone.
