A company offering auction services for artwork has users in both North America and Europe. The application is hosted on Amazon EC2 instances within the us-east-1 Region. Artists upload high-resolution images of their work from mobile phones to a centralized Amazon S3 bucket in the same region. European users are experiencing slow performance during image uploads. What strategy can a solutions architect implement to enhance the upload performance for these users?

What strategy can a solutions architect implement to enhance the upload performance for these users?
Explanation:
The users in Europe are experiencing slow performance during their image uploads because the S3 bucket is located in the us-east-1 Region, increasing latency. Enabling S3 Transfer Acceleration (Option C) for the buckets will leverage Amazon CloudFront's globally distributed edge locations, speeding up the data transfer over long distances. This optimization will result in improved upload performance for users in Europe. While S3 multipart uploads (Option A) can improve upload performance for large files, it does not specifically address the issue of geographic distance and latency faced by European users. Thus, Option C is the most appropriate solution.
