Today, we are delighted 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, in addition to the distilled versions ranging from 1.5 to 70 billion parameters to develop, experiment, and responsibly scale your generative AI concepts on AWS.
In this post, we demonstrate how to get started with DeepSeek-R1 on Amazon Bedrock Marketplace and SageMaker JumpStart. You can follow comparable steps to deploy the distilled variations of the models also.
Overview of DeepSeek-R1
DeepSeek-R1 is a large language model (LLM) developed by DeepSeek AI that uses reinforcement learning to boost thinking abilities through a multi-stage training process from a DeepSeek-V3-Base foundation. An essential differentiating function is its support learning (RL) step, which was utilized to refine the model's responses beyond the basic pre-training and fine-tuning procedure. By including RL, DeepSeek-R1 can adapt more effectively to user feedback and goals, ultimately boosting both significance and clarity. In addition, DeepSeek-R1 employs a chain-of-thought (CoT) technique, suggesting it's geared up to break down complex inquiries and factor through them in a detailed way. This directed thinking procedure permits the model to produce more precise, transparent, and detailed responses. This model integrates RL-based fine-tuning with CoT abilities, aiming to create structured responses while concentrating on interpretability and user interaction. With its extensive abilities DeepSeek-R1 has actually captured the market's attention as a flexible text-generation design that can be incorporated into numerous workflows such as representatives, sensible reasoning and data interpretation tasks.
DeepSeek-R1 uses a Mix of Experts (MoE) architecture and is 671 billion specifications in size. The MoE architecture allows activation of 37 billion parameters, enabling efficient reasoning by routing queries to the most relevant specialist "clusters." This approach permits the design to concentrate on various issue domains while maintaining total performance. DeepSeek-R1 requires a minimum of 800 GB of HBM memory in FP8 format for inference. In this post, we will use an ml.p5e.48 xlarge instance to deploy the model. ml.p5e.48 xlarge comes with 8 Nvidia H200 GPUs providing 1128 GB of GPU memory.
DeepSeek-R1 distilled models bring the reasoning capabilities of the main R1 model to more efficient architectures based on 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 efficient models to mimic the habits and thinking patterns of the larger DeepSeek-R1 model, utilizing it as a teacher model.
You can release DeepSeek-R1 design either through SageMaker JumpStart or Bedrock Marketplace. Because DeepSeek-R1 is an emerging model, we suggest releasing this model with guardrails in location. In this blog, we will use Amazon Bedrock Guardrails to present safeguards, avoid harmful material, and examine models against key security requirements. At the time of composing this blog, for DeepSeek-R1 releases on SageMaker JumpStart and Bedrock Marketplace, Bedrock Guardrails supports only the ApplyGuardrail API. You can develop several guardrails tailored to different use cases and use them to the DeepSeek-R1 model, 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 instance. To examine if you have quotas for P5e, open the Service Quotas console and under AWS Services, select Amazon SageMaker, and confirm you're using 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 ask for a limitation boost, develop a limitation boost demand and connect to your account team.
Because you will be releasing this design with Amazon Bedrock Guardrails, make certain you have the appropriate 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 permits you to introduce safeguards, prevent hazardous content, and evaluate models against crucial safety criteria. You can implement precaution for the DeepSeek-R1 design using the Amazon Bedrock ApplyGuardrail API. This enables you to use guardrails to examine user inputs and design actions deployed 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 create the guardrail, see the GitHub repo.
The general circulation includes the following steps: 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 model'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 intervened 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 show inference utilizing this API.
Deploy DeepSeek-R1 in Amazon Bedrock Marketplace
