    It doesn't make sense if the servers are in japan while the data centers are regional. That's like a NA client has high latency to the server since they are in japan. Then the server will have to suffer high latency again communicating with the data center.

    It also doesn't make sense to call it a Data Center if it really is just a Regional Server. Why make the differentciation. Is this really just a matter of semantics? I get Data Centers house "servers" as in hardware. But when you talk about Worlds they are also housed on A server. (hardware) because that's why one can have a problem and not others. So I again ask why call it a Data Center and not Regional Servers because I'm sorry the arguements made say there really is no difference.

    It makes sense to call it a data center when each world actually consists of multiple servers, which they do.
