I agree that from an API usage perspective the Datastore is a single
global resource but typical single entity Datastore fetch times are
less than intercontinental IP packet travel times which indicates that
an App's web process and its associate data storage are geographically
close.

Maybe my assumption that GAE would spin up multiple web processes for
a single app dispersed around the globe is incorrect. Perhaps each GAE
app has a semi permanent geographic affinity for web and data tiers
which eliminates the update uncertainty I alluded to in my original
post.
