Today, we are thrilled to announce 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, along with the distilled versions ranging from 1.5 to 70 billion specifications to construct, experiment, and properly scale your generative AI ideas on AWS.
In this post, we show how to start with DeepSeek-R1 on Amazon Bedrock Marketplace and SageMaker JumpStart. You can follow similar actions to release the distilled variations of the models as well.
Overview of DeepSeek-R1
DeepSeek-R1 is a big language model (LLM) developed by DeepSeek AI that utilizes reinforcement finding out to improve reasoning abilities through a multi-stage training procedure from a DeepSeek-V3-Base foundation. A key distinguishing function is its reinforcement knowing (RL) action, which was used to improve the model's reactions beyond the standard pre-training and fine-tuning process. By incorporating RL, DeepSeek-R1 can adjust more efficiently to user feedback and objectives, eventually enhancing both significance and clarity. In addition, DeepSeek-R1 employs a chain-of-thought (CoT) approach, suggesting it's geared up to break down complicated queries and reason through them in a detailed way. This guided reasoning procedure enables the model to produce more precise, transparent, and detailed answers. This design integrates RL-based fine-tuning with CoT abilities, aiming to produce structured reactions while concentrating on interpretability and user interaction. With its wide-ranging capabilities DeepSeek-R1 has actually captured the market's attention as a versatile text-generation model that can be integrated into various workflows such as representatives, logical thinking and data interpretation tasks.
DeepSeek-R1 uses a Mixture of Experts (MoE) architecture and is 671 billion parameters in size. The MoE architecture enables activation of 37 billion specifications, enabling effective inference by routing inquiries to the most appropriate professional "clusters." This approach enables the design to specialize in various problem domains while maintaining total effectiveness. DeepSeek-R1 needs at least 800 GB of HBM memory in FP8 format for reasoning. In this post, we will use an ml.p5e.48 xlarge circumstances to deploy the model. ml.p5e.48 xlarge includes 8 Nvidia H200 GPUs providing 1128 GB of GPU memory.
DeepSeek-R1 distilled models bring the thinking capabilities 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 process of training smaller, more effective designs to mimic the habits and thinking patterns of the bigger 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 design, we suggest releasing this model with guardrails in place. In this blog site, we will use Amazon Bedrock Guardrails to introduce safeguards, prevent damaging content, and examine models against key security criteria. At the time of writing this blog site, for DeepSeek-R1 implementations on SageMaker JumpStart and Bedrock Marketplace, Bedrock Guardrails supports only the ApplyGuardrail API. You can develop multiple guardrails tailored to different usage cases and apply them to the DeepSeek-R1 model, improving user experiences and standardizing security controls throughout your generative AI applications.
Prerequisites
To deploy the DeepSeek-R1 design, you need access to an ml.p5e instance. To check if you have quotas for P5e, open the Service Quotas console and under AWS Services, pick Amazon SageMaker, and validate 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 releasing. To request a limit increase, develop a limit boost request and connect to your account team.
Because you will be releasing this design with Amazon Bedrock Guardrails, make certain you have the correct AWS Identity and Gain Access To Management (IAM) permissions 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 enables you to present safeguards, prevent damaging material, and assess models against essential safety requirements. You can carry out precaution for the DeepSeek-R1 model using the Amazon Bedrock ApplyGuardrail API. This allows you to apply guardrails to assess user inputs and design actions deployed on Amazon Bedrock Marketplace and SageMaker JumpStart. You can produce a guardrail using the Amazon Bedrock console or the API. For the example code to create the guardrail, see the GitHub repo.
The basic flow 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 out to the design for inference. After getting the model's output, another guardrail check is applied. If the output passes this last check, it's returned as the outcome. However, if either the input or output is intervened 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
