Servers in data centers don't move around, they just sit there :-) So in
my experience servers running anything non-windows have RTC set to local
time. That's been on Red Hat/CentOS, Debian, Ubuntu.
My experience with Ubuntu is that its installer is able to guess
timezone (GeoIP?) and it properly sets /etc/localtime symlink while RTC
is in UTC. Try "timedatectl" or hwclock. Setting RTC to local time
increases a chance of some mess due to DST or an administrative time jump.
