    It is for SE, It is not for other MMO's.

    You can easily determine this by running a trace on the IP addresses for the servers in the different clusters. They all follow the same hops to the same locations other than the world server being different, or the "datacenter" cluster being different.

    Each "Datacenter" is comprised of multiple physical servers that make up the multiple "world" servers, and then a couple of physical servers that make up the "instance" server for each "datacenter" cluster.

    This is replicated in the same physical building for the different "datacenter" server clusters in the 3 countries where they are hosted. Japan, the US, and Germany.

    The NA servers are in Sacramento, CA, the EU ones are in Frankfurt, Germany, and the Japan ones are in Tokyo.
