A financial services company is building a fraud detection system by using Amazon Bedrock.

Option D is correct because it separates the United States and European workloads and uses the correct Amazon Bedrock inference pattern for European data residency. AWS documentation states that geographic cross-Region inference keeps data processing within specified geographic boundaries such as US, EU, and APAC, and is intended for organizations with data residency and compliance requirements. The regional availability documentation further explains that a geographic profile routes within a defined geography and that prompts and outputs may move within that geography but not outside it. This directly satisfies the requirement that European customer data must be processed only in Europe-based AWS Regions.

Provisioned throughput is appropriate for the US workload because the system has a demanding and predictable performance target: 1,000 transactions per second with sub-500 ms response times. Provisioned capacity is generally used when an application needs reserved throughput and consistent performance rather than depending only on on-demand capacity. Automatic scaling based on utilization metrics supports changing demand while maintaining performance. EventBridge and Lambda can coordinate failover workflows or routing updates when connectivity disruptions occur, supporting high availability across Regions.

Option A is not the best answer because it includes a global inference profile. AWS documentation states that global cross-Region inference can route requests across supported commercial AWS Regions worldwide and has no geographic data-residency restriction. AWS explicitly notes that organizations with data residency or compliance requirements should assess whether global cross-Region inference fits their framework because requests may be processed in other supported commercial Regions. That conflicts with the European data processing requirement.

Option B uses separate Regional provisioned throughput, but it relies on a custom Application Load Balancer approach for Bedrock routing and does not use the Bedrock geographic inference profile that is designed for EU data residency. Option C uses response streaming, which improves perceived response latency for text generation but does not guarantee sub-500 ms fraud-processing latency or European-only processing. Therefore, option D is the most complete AWS-aligned solution.
