Today, we are excited 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 design, DeepSeek-R1, in addition to the distilled versions varying from 1.5 to 70 billion criteria to develop, experiment, and responsibly scale your generative AI concepts on AWS.
In this post, we demonstrate how to start with DeepSeek-R1 on Amazon Bedrock Marketplace and SageMaker JumpStart. You can follow comparable steps to release the distilled versions of the designs too.
Overview of DeepSeek-R1
DeepSeek-R1 is a big language model (LLM) developed by DeepSeek AI that uses support discovering to enhance reasoning abilities through a multi-stage training process from a DeepSeek-V3-Base structure. A crucial distinguishing function is its support learning (RL) step, which was used to refine the design's actions beyond the standard pre-training and tweak process. By incorporating RL, DeepSeek-R1 can adjust better to user feedback and goals, ultimately enhancing both relevance and clarity. In addition, DeepSeek-R1 employs a chain-of-thought (CoT) technique, meaning it's equipped to break down complicated questions and factor through them in a detailed manner. This guided thinking process enables the design to produce more accurate, transparent, and detailed answers. This model integrates RL-based fine-tuning with CoT abilities, aiming to generate structured responses while concentrating on interpretability and user interaction. With its wide-ranging capabilities DeepSeek-R1 has captured the industry's attention as a flexible text-generation model that can be incorporated into different workflows such as representatives, sensible reasoning and information analysis jobs.
DeepSeek-R1 uses a Mixture of Experts (MoE) architecture and is 671 billion specifications in size. The MoE architecture permits activation of 37 billion parameters, allowing effective inference by routing queries to the most pertinent professional "clusters." This method allows the design to concentrate on various issue domains while maintaining overall performance. DeepSeek-R1 requires a minimum of 800 GB of HBM memory in FP8 format for reasoning. In this post, we will utilize an ml.p5e.48 xlarge instance to deploy the model. ml.p5e.48 xlarge features 8 Nvidia H200 GPUs providing 1128 GB of GPU memory.
DeepSeek-R1 distilled models bring the thinking abilities of the main R1 model to more effective architectures based upon popular open models like Qwen (1.5 B, 7B, 14B, and 32B) and Llama (8B and 70B). Distillation describes a procedure of training smaller sized, more efficient designs to mimic the habits and thinking patterns of the larger DeepSeek-R1 design, using it as a teacher model.
You can release DeepSeek-R1 model either through SageMaker JumpStart or Bedrock Marketplace. Because DeepSeek-R1 is an emerging model, we advise deploying this design with guardrails in location. In this blog, we will use Amazon Bedrock Guardrails to introduce safeguards, avoid harmful material, and examine models against key security requirements. At the time of composing this blog, for DeepSeek-R1 implementations on SageMaker JumpStart and Bedrock Marketplace, Bedrock Guardrails supports only the ApplyGuardrail API. You can create several guardrails tailored to different usage cases and apply them to the DeepSeek-R1 model, improving user experiences and standardizing safety controls throughout your generative AI applications.
Prerequisites
To deploy the DeepSeek-R1 model, you require access to an ml.p5e instance. To examine if you have quotas for P5e, open the Service Quotas console and under AWS Services, choose Amazon SageMaker, and validate you're using 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 releasing. To ask for a limit boost, produce a limitation increase demand and reach out to your account group.
Because you will be releasing this design with Amazon Bedrock Guardrails, make certain you have the right AWS Identity and Gain Access To Management (IAM) consents to use Amazon Bedrock Guardrails. For directions, see Set up consents to utilize guardrails for material filtering.
Implementing guardrails with the ApplyGuardrail API
Amazon Bedrock Guardrails permits you to introduce safeguards, prevent hazardous material, and examine designs against key security requirements. You can implement precaution for the DeepSeek-R1 model utilizing the Amazon Bedrock ApplyGuardrail API. This enables you to apply guardrails to examine user inputs and model actions deployed on Amazon Bedrock Marketplace and SageMaker JumpStart. You can develop a guardrail using the Amazon Bedrock console or the API. For the example code to produce the guardrail, see the GitHub repo.
The basic flow includes the following steps: First, the system receives 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 reasoning. After receiving the design's output, another guardrail check is applied. If the output passes this final 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 showing the nature of the intervention and whether it occurred at the input or output phase. The examples showcased in the following sections show inference using this API.
Deploy DeepSeek-R1 in Amazon Bedrock Marketplace
Amazon Bedrock Marketplace gives you access to over 100 popular, emerging, and specialized foundation designs (FMs) through Amazon Bedrock. To gain access to DeepSeek-R1 in Amazon Bedrock, total the following steps:
