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 model, DeepSeek-R1, together with the distilled variations varying from 1.5 to 70 billion criteria to develop, experiment, and properly scale your generative AI ideas 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 deploy the distilled variations of the designs too.
Overview of DeepSeek-R1
DeepSeek-R1 is a big language design (LLM) developed by DeepSeek AI that utilizes reinforcement finding out to enhance thinking capabilities through a multi-stage training procedure from a DeepSeek-V3-Base structure. A key identifying feature is its support knowing (RL) action, which was utilized to fine-tune the design's actions beyond the basic pre-training and tweak process. By including RL, DeepSeek-R1 can adjust 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 complex questions and factor through them in a detailed manner. This assisted thinking process allows the design to produce more accurate, transparent, and detailed answers. This design combines RL-based fine-tuning with CoT abilities, aiming to produce structured actions while focusing on interpretability and user interaction. With its wide-ranging abilities DeepSeek-R1 has actually captured the industry's attention as a flexible text-generation model that can be incorporated into numerous workflows such as representatives, rational reasoning and data interpretation jobs.
DeepSeek-R1 uses a Mix of Experts (MoE) architecture and is 671 billion criteria in size. The MoE architecture enables activation of 37 billion specifications, enabling efficient inference by routing questions to the most relevant professional "clusters." This approach permits the model to concentrate on different problem domains while maintaining general 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 deploy the design. ml.p5e.48 xlarge includes 8 Nvidia H200 GPUs supplying 1128 GB of GPU memory.
DeepSeek-R1 distilled models bring the thinking abilities of the main R1 model to more efficient architectures based upon popular open models like Qwen (1.5 B, 7B, 14B, and 32B) and Llama (8B and 70B). Distillation describes a process of training smaller, more effective designs to simulate the behavior and reasoning patterns of the bigger DeepSeek-R1 model, using it as an instructor design.
You can deploy DeepSeek-R1 model either through SageMaker JumpStart or Bedrock Marketplace. Because DeepSeek-R1 is an emerging model, we suggest deploying this model with guardrails in location. In this blog site, we will utilize Amazon Bedrock Guardrails to present safeguards, avoid damaging material, and assess models against key safety criteria. At the time of writing this blog site, for DeepSeek-R1 implementations on SageMaker JumpStart and Bedrock Marketplace, Bedrock Guardrails supports just the ApplyGuardrail API. You can produce several guardrails tailored to various usage cases and apply them to the DeepSeek-R1 model, improving 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 examine if you have quotas for P5e, open the Service Quotas console and under AWS Services, select Amazon SageMaker, and validate you're using ml.p5e.48 xlarge for endpoint use. Make certain that you have at least one ml.P5e.48 xlarge instance in the AWS Region you are releasing. To ask for a limitation boost, create a limitation increase demand and connect to your account group.
Because you will be deploying this design with Amazon Bedrock Guardrails, make certain you have the appropriate AWS Identity and Gain Access To Management (IAM) permissions to use Amazon Bedrock Guardrails. For instructions, see Establish authorizations to use guardrails for material filtering.
Implementing guardrails with the ApplyGuardrail API
Amazon Bedrock Guardrails permits you to present safeguards, prevent damaging content, and evaluate designs against crucial safety requirements. You can carry out safety steps for the DeepSeek-R1 model utilizing the Amazon Bedrock ApplyGuardrail API. This permits you to use guardrails to examine user inputs and model reactions released on Amazon Bedrock Marketplace and SageMaker JumpStart. You can produce a guardrail utilizing the Amazon Bedrock console or the API. For the example code to develop the guardrail, see the GitHub repo.
The general circulation involves 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 to the design for reasoning. After getting the design's output, another guardrail check is applied. If the output passes this final check, it's returned as the 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 happened at the input or output phase. The examples showcased in the following sections demonstrate inference utilizing this API.
Deploy DeepSeek-R1 in Amazon Bedrock Marketplace
