Today, we are thrilled to reveal that DeepSeek R1 distilled Llama and Qwen designs are available through Amazon Bedrock Marketplace and Amazon SageMaker JumpStart. With this launch, you can now release DeepSeek AI's first-generation frontier design, DeepSeek-R1, in addition to the distilled variations ranging from 1.5 to 70 billion specifications to construct, experiment, and responsibly scale your generative AI ideas on AWS.
In this post, we demonstrate how to get started with DeepSeek-R1 on Amazon Bedrock Marketplace and SageMaker JumpStart. You can follow comparable steps to deploy the distilled variations of the designs as well.
Overview of DeepSeek-R1
DeepSeek-R1 is a big language model (LLM) developed by DeepSeek AI that utilizes support discovering to enhance thinking abilities through a multi-stage training process from a DeepSeek-V3-Base structure. A key distinguishing function is its support learning (RL) step, which was used to improve the model's actions beyond the standard pre-training and tweak procedure. By incorporating RL, DeepSeek-R1 can adjust more successfully to user feedback and objectives, ultimately enhancing both significance and clearness. In addition, DeepSeek-R1 utilizes a chain-of-thought (CoT) method, meaning it's geared up to break down complex inquiries and factor through them in a detailed way. This guided reasoning procedure permits the model to produce more precise, transparent, and detailed responses. This design integrates RL-based fine-tuning with CoT capabilities, aiming to produce structured actions while concentrating on interpretability and user interaction. With its wide-ranging capabilities DeepSeek-R1 has caught the industry's attention as a flexible text-generation design that can be integrated into different workflows such as agents, sensible reasoning and data analysis jobs.
DeepSeek-R1 uses a Mix of Experts (MoE) architecture and is 671 billion criteria in size. The MoE architecture permits activation of 37 billion criteria, enabling effective inference by routing queries to the most pertinent specialist "clusters." This approach allows the model to focus on various issue domains while maintaining general effectiveness. DeepSeek-R1 needs a minimum of 800 GB of HBM memory in FP8 format for reasoning. In this post, we will use an ml.p5e.48 xlarge circumstances to release the model. ml.p5e.48 xlarge comes with 8 Nvidia H200 GPUs offering 1128 GB of GPU memory.
DeepSeek-R1 distilled models bring the reasoning abilities of the main R1 model to more efficient architectures based on popular open models like Qwen (1.5 B, 7B, 14B, and 32B) and Llama (8B and 70B). Distillation refers to a procedure of training smaller sized, more effective designs to imitate the habits and reasoning patterns of the larger DeepSeek-R1 design, using it as an instructor design.
You can release DeepSeek-R1 design either through SageMaker JumpStart or Bedrock Marketplace. Because DeepSeek-R1 is an emerging model, we advise deploying this model with guardrails in location. In this blog site, we will utilize Amazon Bedrock Guardrails to present safeguards, avoid damaging content, and examine models against essential security criteria. At the time of writing this blog, for DeepSeek-R1 releases on SageMaker JumpStart and Bedrock Marketplace, Bedrock Guardrails supports just the ApplyGuardrail API. You can create several guardrails tailored to different usage cases and use them to the DeepSeek-R1 design, enhancing user experiences and standardizing safety controls across your generative AI applications.
Prerequisites
To deploy the DeepSeek-R1 model, you need access to an ml.p5e circumstances. To check if you have quotas for P5e, open the Service Quotas console and under AWS Services, pick Amazon SageMaker, and verify you're using ml.p5e.48 xlarge for endpoint use. Make certain that you have at least one ml.P5e.48 xlarge circumstances in the AWS Region you are releasing. To ask for a limit increase, develop a limit boost demand and connect to your account group.
Because you will be releasing this design with Amazon Bedrock Guardrails, make certain you have the proper AWS Identity and Gain Access To Management (IAM) consents to use Amazon Bedrock Guardrails. For instructions, see Establish approvals to use guardrails for material filtering.
Implementing guardrails with the ApplyGuardrail API
Amazon Bedrock Guardrails allows you to introduce safeguards, avoid harmful material, and evaluate models against key security criteria. You can execute precaution for the DeepSeek-R1 design using the Amazon Bedrock ApplyGuardrail API. This enables you to use guardrails to examine user inputs and model responses released on Amazon Bedrock Marketplace and SageMaker JumpStart. You can create a guardrail using the Amazon Bedrock console or the API. For the example code to develop the guardrail, see the GitHub repo.
The basic flow involves the following actions: First, the system gets an input for the model. This input is then processed through the ApplyGuardrail API. If the input passes the guardrail check, it's sent out to the model for inference. After getting the design's output, another guardrail check is used. If the output passes this last check, it's returned as the final result. However, if either the input or output is stepped in by the guardrail, a message is returned suggesting the nature of the intervention and whether it took place at the input or output phase. The examples showcased in the following areas demonstrate inference using this API.
Deploy DeepSeek-R1 in Amazon Bedrock Marketplace
