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 deploy DeepSeek AI's first-generation frontier model, DeepSeek-R1, along with the distilled variations ranging from 1.5 to 70 billion specifications to develop, experiment, and properly 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 models too.
Overview of DeepSeek-R1
DeepSeek-R1 is a large language model (LLM) developed by DeepSeek AI that utilizes reinforcement finding out to improve thinking abilities through a multi-stage training process from a DeepSeek-V3-Base structure. A crucial distinguishing function is its reinforcement learning (RL) step, which was utilized to fine-tune the design's reactions beyond the basic pre-training and fine-tuning process. By integrating RL, DeepSeek-R1 can adapt better to user feedback and objectives, eventually improving both significance and clarity. In addition, DeepSeek-R1 utilizes a chain-of-thought (CoT) technique, implying it's geared up to break down intricate questions and factor through them in a detailed way. This directed reasoning process allows the design to produce more precise, transparent, and detailed responses. This model combines RL-based fine-tuning with CoT capabilities, aiming to generate structured reactions while concentrating on interpretability and user interaction. With its extensive capabilities DeepSeek-R1 has actually caught the industry's attention as a flexible text-generation model that can be integrated into different workflows such as representatives, logical reasoning and information analysis jobs.
DeepSeek-R1 utilizes a Mix of Experts (MoE) architecture and is 671 billion specifications in size. The MoE architecture enables activation of 37 billion criteria, enabling effective inference by routing questions to the most relevant specialist "clusters." This technique permits the design to concentrate on different issue domains while maintaining general effectiveness. DeepSeek-R1 requires a minimum of 800 GB of HBM memory in FP8 format for reasoning. In this post, we will use an ml.p5e.48 xlarge instance to release the design. ml.p5e.48 xlarge comes with 8 Nvidia H200 GPUs offering 1128 GB of GPU memory.
DeepSeek-R1 distilled models bring the reasoning capabilities of the main R1 design to more efficient architectures based on popular open designs like Qwen (1.5 B, 7B, 14B, and 32B) and Llama (8B and 70B). Distillation describes a process of training smaller sized, more effective designs to imitate the behavior and reasoning patterns of the bigger DeepSeek-R1 model, utilizing it as an instructor model.
You can release DeepSeek-R1 model either through SageMaker JumpStart or Bedrock Marketplace. Because DeepSeek-R1 is an emerging design, we suggest releasing this model with guardrails in location. In this blog, we will utilize Amazon Bedrock Guardrails to present safeguards, prevent damaging material, and evaluate models against crucial 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 produce multiple 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 design, you require access to an ml.p5e circumstances. To inspect if you have quotas for P5e, open the Service Quotas console and under AWS Services, select Amazon SageMaker, and verify you're utilizing ml.p5e.48 xlarge for endpoint usage. Make certain that you have at least one ml.P5e.48 xlarge circumstances in the AWS Region you are deploying. To ask for a limitation boost, develop a limit boost request and reach out to your account team.
Because you will be deploying this design with Amazon Bedrock Guardrails, make certain you have the right AWS Identity and Gain Access To Management (IAM) approvals to utilize Amazon Bedrock Guardrails. For instructions, see Establish authorizations to utilize guardrails for material filtering.
Implementing guardrails with the ApplyGuardrail API
Amazon Bedrock Guardrails permits you to present safeguards, prevent hazardous content, and assess designs against essential security requirements. You can implement safety procedures for the DeepSeek-R1 model using the Amazon Bedrock ApplyGuardrail API. This allows you to use guardrails to evaluate user inputs and model responses released on Amazon Bedrock Marketplace and SageMaker JumpStart. You can create a guardrail utilizing the Amazon Bedrock console or the API. For the example code to produce the guardrail, see the GitHub repo.
The basic circulation includes 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 design for inference. After receiving the design's output, another guardrail check is used. If the output passes this last check, it's returned as the result. However, if either the input or output is intervened by the guardrail, a message is returned indicating the nature of the intervention and whether it happened at the input or output stage. The examples showcased in the following sections demonstrate reasoning utilizing this API.
Deploy DeepSeek-R1 in Amazon Bedrock Marketplace
Amazon Bedrock Marketplace offers you access to over 100 popular, emerging, and specialized structure models (FMs) through Amazon Bedrock. To gain access to DeepSeek-R1 in Amazon Bedrock, complete the following steps:
