Which one is true? Also: The posts / news talking about server groups inside the data centers seem to be older. Was the behavior changed at some point?

Thanks in advance for any information on this topic!
From my understanding, it use to be worldwide, and then with the issues they had with AK taking 20 minutes.. and the bog down on their duty servers, they ended up splitting all the servers into groupings. They're listed here (I think that's current anyway):
