About Guara Cloud
Guara Cloud is a Brazilian deployment platform for developers and teams who want infrastructure hosted in Brazil. Anything that runs in a container can be deployed, with automatic HTTPS, custom domains, deploys triggered by git push, real-time logs and instant rollback to earlier versions.
The dashboard shows CPU, memory, latency and error rate, distributed tracing, APM percentiles and horizontal and vertical autoscaling, and it can provision databases such as PostgreSQL and Redis. Supported runtimes include Node.js, Python, Go, Java, Ruby, PHP, Rust, Elixir, .NET and Deno, and frameworks such as Next.js, Nuxt and Remix. The Portuguese-language site compares it with Vercel, Railway, Render and Fly.io on Brazil latency, local servers and invoicing.
Billing is in Brazilian reais, so there is no dollar conversion, and the platform issues a Nota Fiscal, claims native LGPD compliance and offers Portuguese and English support. The servers are in Sao Paulo, with Salvador and Blumenau listed as coming soon, and a free trial needs no credit card.
