<p>I have created azure devops with a few organizations/projects in it. Do I need to scale or replicate it across different datacenters so all the developers across the globe can access it? When would I need to scale or replicate a service? Any references appreciated.</p>

Manual intervention is not required for your Azure Devops organisation to be accessible to different developers accross the globe.

The on-premises version of Azure Devops can be scaled with [multi-server deployments](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/server/requirements?view=azure-devops-2020#:%7E:text=Azure%20DevOps%20on%2Dpremises%20can,that%20use%20SQL%20Always%20On.). However it's common to only deploy these servers to a single datacenter.
