First, global group currently directly use CentralAuthUser object. Since Central ID is introduced in 1.27, we can instead query global groups via Central ID. Second, we do not recommend using CentralAuth in 3rd party wikis, but global group would be a feature usable with $wgSharedDb.

Apologies if I'm misunderstanding this task, but, as Tgr suggested in T359116#9731922 (and makes absolute sense) if we're talking user permission/rights groups, Extension:GlobalUserrights may well worth considering by migrating CentralAuth rights to and/or refactoring it to merge in any efficiencies etc.
It's used on a number of shared user DB sites.
