Question

A GenAI team runs a customer-facing summarization service on Amazon Bedrock using Anthropic Claude on-demand throughput in us-east-1. During regional promotional events, request volume spikes 4x for a few hours, and the team begins receiving ThrottlingExceptions because they exceed the on-demand requests-per-minute quota in that single region. The workload has no data residency restrictions, and the team wants to absorb these bursts without committing to a fixed hourly cost or re-architecting their application code. What is the MOST cost-effective way to increase available throughput during these spikes?

Accepted Answer

Switch to a cross-region inference profile so Bedrock automatically distributes on-demand invocations across multiple regions, raising the effective request capacity without provisioned commitments.

Answer

Purchase Provisioned Throughput with a 1-month commitment sized to the 4x peak so capacity is always reserved for the events.

Answer

Move the entire workload to Bedrock batch inference to avoid on-demand quotas during the spikes.

Answer

Request a permanent Service Quotas increase to 4x the baseline requests-per-minute limit in us-east-1.
