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 versions varying from 1.5 to 70 billion parameters to build, 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 variations of the models also.
Overview of DeepSeek-R1
DeepSeek-R1 is a large language model (LLM) established by DeepSeek AI that uses reinforcement finding out to enhance reasoning capabilities through a multi-stage training process from a DeepSeek-V3-Base structure. A key distinguishing feature is its support knowing (RL) step, which was used to fine-tune the design's responses beyond the basic pre-training and tweak process. By incorporating RL, DeepSeek-R1 can adjust more successfully to user feedback and goals, ultimately improving both significance and clearness. In addition, DeepSeek-R1 uses a chain-of-thought (CoT) method, indicating it's geared up to break down complicated questions and reason through them in a detailed manner. This assisted thinking process enables the model to produce more accurate, transparent, and detailed responses. This model combines RL-based fine-tuning with CoT capabilities, aiming to generate structured actions while focusing on interpretability and user interaction. With its comprehensive abilities DeepSeek-R1 has actually caught the industry's attention as a flexible text-generation design that can be integrated into different workflows such as agents, rational thinking and information interpretation tasks.
DeepSeek-R1 utilizes a Mix of Experts (MoE) architecture and is 671 billion criteria in size. The MoE architecture allows activation of 37 billion criteria, making it possible for efficient reasoning by routing inquiries to the most pertinent specialist "clusters." This approach permits the design to specialize in different problem domains while maintaining overall efficiency. DeepSeek-R1 requires at least 800 GB of HBM memory in FP8 format for inference. In this post, we will use an ml.p5e.48 xlarge circumstances to release the model. ml.p5e.48 xlarge features 8 Nvidia H200 GPUs offering 1128 GB of GPU memory.
DeepSeek-R1 distilled designs bring the thinking capabilities of the main R1 design to more effective architectures based upon popular open designs like Qwen (1.5 B, 7B, 14B, and 32B) and Llama (8B and 70B). Distillation refers to a procedure of training smaller, more effective designs to mimic the behavior and reasoning patterns of the bigger DeepSeek-R1 model, 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 design, we suggest releasing this model with guardrails in location. In this blog site, we will use Amazon Bedrock Guardrails to introduce safeguards, prevent harmful content, and assess designs against key safety requirements. At the time of writing this blog site, for DeepSeek-R1 deployments on SageMaker JumpStart and Bedrock Marketplace, Bedrock Guardrails supports only the ApplyGuardrail API. You can produce several guardrails tailored to various usage cases and use them to the DeepSeek-R1 model, improving user experiences and standardizing safety controls throughout your generative AI applications.
Prerequisites
To release the DeepSeek-R1 model, 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, pick Amazon SageMaker, and confirm you're utilizing ml.p5e.48 xlarge for endpoint usage. Make certain that you have at least one ml.P5e.48 xlarge instance in the AWS Region you are deploying. To ask for a limit boost, develop a limit boost request and reach out to your account team.
Because you will be releasing this model with Amazon Bedrock Guardrails, make certain you have the proper AWS Identity and Gain Access To Management (IAM) permissions to utilize Amazon Bedrock Guardrails. For directions, see Establish approvals to use guardrails for material filtering.
Implementing guardrails with the ApplyGuardrail API
Amazon Bedrock Guardrails allows you to present safeguards, avoid harmful content, and evaluate models against essential safety criteria. You can carry out safety steps for the DeepSeek-R1 model utilizing the Amazon Bedrock ApplyGuardrail API. This allows you to apply guardrails to assess user inputs and design 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, it-viking.ch see the GitHub repo.
The basic circulation includes the following steps: 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 to the model for reasoning. After getting the design's output, another guardrail check is used. If the output passes this last check, it's returned as the outcome. 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 occurred at the input or output phase. The examples showcased in the following sections show inference utilizing this API.
Deploy DeepSeek-R1 in Amazon Bedrock Marketplace
Amazon Bedrock Marketplace provides you access to over 100 popular, emerging, and specialized structure designs (FMs) through Amazon Bedrock. To gain access to DeepSeek-R1 in Amazon Bedrock, complete the following actions:
