Today, we are excited 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 release DeepSeek AI's first-generation frontier design, DeepSeek-R1, in addition to the distilled versions ranging from 1.5 to 70 billion specifications to construct, experiment, and responsibly scale your generative AI ideas on AWS.
In this post, we demonstrate how to begin with DeepSeek-R1 on Amazon Bedrock Marketplace and SageMaker JumpStart. You can follow similar actions to release the distilled versions of the designs also.
Overview of DeepSeek-R1
DeepSeek-R1 is a large language model (LLM) developed by DeepSeek AI that uses reinforcement discovering to boost thinking capabilities through a multi-stage training procedure from a DeepSeek-V3-Base structure. A crucial differentiating function is its support learning (RL) step, which was utilized to improve the model's responses beyond the standard pre-training and tweak procedure. By integrating RL, DeepSeek-R1 can adapt better to user feedback and goals, eventually improving both relevance and clearness. In addition, DeepSeek-R1 utilizes a chain-of-thought (CoT) technique, suggesting it's equipped to break down complicated inquiries and factor through them in a detailed way. This assisted reasoning process allows the model to produce more precise, transparent, and detailed responses. This design integrates RL-based fine-tuning with CoT abilities, aiming to produce structured actions while focusing on interpretability and user interaction. With its extensive capabilities DeepSeek-R1 has recorded the market's attention as a versatile text-generation design that can be incorporated into various workflows such as agents, sensible thinking and data analysis tasks.
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 pertinent specialist "clusters." This approach permits the model to concentrate on various issue domains while maintaining total efficiency. DeepSeek-R1 needs a minimum of 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 comes with 8 Nvidia H200 GPUs offering 1128 GB of GPU memory.
DeepSeek-R1 distilled designs bring the reasoning 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 process of training smaller sized, more effective models to mimic the behavior and thinking patterns of the bigger DeepSeek-R1 model, using it as a teacher design.
You can release DeepSeek-R1 design either through SageMaker JumpStart or Bedrock Marketplace. Because DeepSeek-R1 is an emerging model, we recommend deploying this model with guardrails in place. In this blog site, we will utilize Amazon Bedrock Guardrails to present safeguards, avoid harmful material, and examine models against key safety criteria. At the time of writing this blog site, for DeepSeek-R1 releases on SageMaker JumpStart and Bedrock Marketplace, Bedrock Guardrails supports just the ApplyGuardrail API. You can produce multiple guardrails tailored to different use cases and apply them to the DeepSeek-R1 design, improving user experiences and standardizing security controls throughout your generative AI applications.
Prerequisites
To release the DeepSeek-R1 model, 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, 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 increase demand and reach out 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) authorizations to use Amazon Bedrock Guardrails. For directions, see Establish authorizations to use guardrails for material filtering.
Implementing guardrails with the ApplyGuardrail API
Amazon Bedrock Guardrails enables you to present safeguards, prevent hazardous content, and evaluate models against crucial safety requirements. You can execute security procedures for the DeepSeek-R1 model utilizing the Amazon Bedrock ApplyGuardrail API. This allows you to apply guardrails to evaluate user inputs and design responses 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 involves the following actions: First, the system gets an input for the design. 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 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 showing the nature of the intervention and whether it took place at the input or output phase. The examples showcased in the following sections demonstrate 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 models (FMs) through Amazon Bedrock. To gain access to DeepSeek-R1 in Amazon Bedrock, total the following steps:
