Global Latency of Playfab APIs,Latency for Playfab SDK APIs for players around the world

I have a question about all of the playfab API's (IE Auth service, economy, cloud scripts). Will the routing always be to and from one region, and if that's the case, what does the avg latency look like across the world?

Or, are Playfab APIs distributed to different regions, and the user will automatically hit the one closest to their IP?

Any advice is appreciated, thank you!

The core service of PlayFab is hosted in US-West, which is where all your inventory and player data requests will go.

PlayFab's API is designed to provide low-latency and high-reliability gaming experiences globally. The latency is generally affected by many factors such as the different distances from the server, network conditions etc. Some areas will also be affected by other factors, such as the Great Firewall.
