Today, we are delighted to reveal that DeepSeek R1 distilled Llama and Qwen models 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, along 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 show how to start with DeepSeek-R1 on Amazon Bedrock Marketplace and SageMaker JumpStart. You can follow similar actions to deploy the distilled versions of the models as well.
Overview of DeepSeek-R1
DeepSeek-R1 is a large language design (LLM) established by DeepSeek AI that utilizes support finding out to enhance reasoning abilities through a multi-stage training procedure from a DeepSeek-V3-Base structure. A crucial distinguishing function is its reinforcement learning (RL) action, which was used to refine the design's responses beyond the standard pre-training and fine-tuning procedure. By incorporating RL, DeepSeek-R1 can adapt more effectively to user feedback and goals, ultimately boosting both relevance and clarity. In addition, DeepSeek-R1 utilizes a chain-of-thought (CoT) technique, meaning it's geared up to break down intricate questions and factor through them in a detailed way. This directed thinking procedure allows the design to produce more precise, transparent, and detailed answers. This model integrates RL-based fine-tuning with CoT capabilities, aiming to generate structured reactions while concentrating on interpretability and user interaction. With its comprehensive capabilities DeepSeek-R1 has actually captured the market's attention as a flexible text-generation design that can be incorporated into numerous workflows such as agents, rational thinking and data interpretation jobs.
DeepSeek-R1 utilizes a Mix of Experts (MoE) architecture and is 671 billion criteria in size. The MoE architecture permits activation of 37 billion parameters, allowing efficient reasoning by routing inquiries to the most appropriate expert "clusters." This technique permits the model to concentrate on different issue domains while maintaining general effectiveness. DeepSeek-R1 requires 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 offering 1128 GB of GPU memory.
DeepSeek-R1 distilled models bring the reasoning abilities of the main R1 model to more efficient architectures based upon popular open designs like Qwen (1.5 B, 7B, 14B, and 32B) and Llama (8B and 70B). Distillation describes a procedure of training smaller sized, more efficient models to mimic the behavior and thinking patterns of the larger DeepSeek-R1 model, using it as an instructor design.
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 utilize Amazon Bedrock Guardrails to introduce safeguards, prevent damaging content, and evaluate designs against key safety requirements. At the time of writing this blog, for DeepSeek-R1 implementations on SageMaker JumpStart and Bedrock Marketplace, Bedrock Guardrails supports only the ApplyGuardrail API. You can develop several guardrails tailored to various 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 model, you require access to an ml.p5e instance. To check if you have quotas for P5e, open the Service Quotas console and under AWS Services, choose 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 circumstances in the AWS Region you are deploying. To request a limitation boost, produce a limitation increase request and connect to your account group.
Because you will be deploying this design with Amazon Bedrock Guardrails, make certain you have the proper AWS Identity and Gain Access To Management (IAM) consents to utilize Amazon Bedrock Guardrails. For instructions, see Establish approvals to use guardrails for content filtering.
Implementing guardrails with the ApplyGuardrail API
Amazon Bedrock Guardrails allows you to introduce safeguards, content, and examine designs against crucial safety requirements. You can execute safety procedures for the DeepSeek-R1 design utilizing the Amazon Bedrock ApplyGuardrail API. This permits you to use guardrails to assess user inputs and design actions deployed 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 basic flow includes the following actions: 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 model for inference. After getting the model's output, another guardrail check is applied. If the output passes this final check, it's returned as the final 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 areas show reasoning 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 actions:
