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 deploy DeepSeek AI's first-generation frontier design, DeepSeek-R1, together with the distilled variations ranging from 1.5 to 70 billion criteria to construct, experiment, and properly scale your generative AI concepts on AWS.
In this post, we show how to begin with DeepSeek-R1 on Amazon Bedrock Marketplace and SageMaker JumpStart. You can follow comparable actions to deploy the distilled variations of the models too.
Overview of DeepSeek-R1
DeepSeek-R1 is a big language design (LLM) developed by DeepSeek AI that uses reinforcement finding out to improve reasoning abilities through a multi-stage training procedure from a DeepSeek-V3-Base foundation. A crucial identifying function is its reinforcement learning (RL) step, which was used to fine-tune the design's actions beyond the standard pre-training and fine-tuning process. By incorporating RL, DeepSeek-R1 can adapt better to user feedback and objectives, ultimately boosting both importance and clearness. In addition, DeepSeek-R1 employs a chain-of-thought (CoT) technique, suggesting it's equipped to break down complicated questions and reason through them in a detailed manner. This directed thinking process allows the model to produce more precise, transparent, and detailed answers. This design combines RL-based fine-tuning with CoT capabilities, aiming to produce structured actions while concentrating on interpretability and user interaction. With its comprehensive capabilities DeepSeek-R1 has captured the market's attention as a flexible text-generation design that can be integrated into numerous workflows such as representatives, rational reasoning and data interpretation tasks.
DeepSeek-R1 utilizes a Mix of Experts (MoE) architecture and is 671 billion specifications in size. The MoE architecture permits activation of 37 billion parameters, enabling efficient reasoning by routing inquiries to the most pertinent professional "clusters." This approach allows the design to focus on different issue domains while maintaining overall efficiency. DeepSeek-R1 needs a minimum of 800 GB of HBM memory in FP8 format for reasoning. In this post, we will utilize an ml.p5e.48 xlarge instance to release the design. ml.p5e.48 xlarge features 8 Nvidia H200 GPUs supplying 1128 GB of GPU memory.
DeepSeek-R1 distilled designs bring the reasoning abilities of the main R1 design to more efficient architectures based on popular open designs like Qwen (1.5 B, 7B, 14B, and 32B) and Llama (8B and 70B). Distillation describes a process of training smaller, more efficient designs to simulate the behavior and reasoning patterns of the bigger DeepSeek-R1 model, using it as a teacher model.
You can release DeepSeek-R1 model either through SageMaker JumpStart or Bedrock Marketplace. Because DeepSeek-R1 is an emerging design, we suggest releasing this model with guardrails in location. In this blog, we will use Amazon Bedrock Guardrails to introduce safeguards, avoid damaging material, and evaluate models against crucial safety requirements. At the time of composing this blog, for DeepSeek-R1 deployments on SageMaker JumpStart and Bedrock Marketplace, Bedrock Guardrails supports just the ApplyGuardrail API. You can create multiple guardrails tailored to different usage cases and apply them to the DeepSeek-R1 model, improving user experiences and standardizing safety controls throughout your generative AI applications.
Prerequisites
To release the DeepSeek-R1 design, you require access to an ml.p5e instance. To inspect if you have quotas for P5e, open the Service Quotas console and under AWS Services, select Amazon SageMaker, and verify 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 limit increase, create 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 correct AWS Identity and Gain Access To Management (IAM) permissions to use Amazon Bedrock Guardrails. For guidelines, see Establish permissions to use guardrails for material filtering.
Implementing guardrails with the ApplyGuardrail API
Amazon Bedrock Guardrails permits you to present safeguards, prevent harmful material, and assess models against key safety criteria. You can carry out safety measures for the DeepSeek-R1 design utilizing the Amazon Bedrock ApplyGuardrail API. This enables you to use guardrails to examine user inputs and model reactions 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 produce the guardrail, see the GitHub repo.
The basic flow 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 inference. After receiving 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 suggesting the nature of the intervention and whether it happened at the input or output stage. The examples showcased in the following sections demonstrate inference utilizing this API.
