Today, we are delighted to announce 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, in addition to the distilled versions ranging from 1.5 to 70 billion specifications to build, experiment, and responsibly 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 uses reinforcement finding out to improve thinking abilities through a multi-stage training procedure from a DeepSeek-V3-Base structure. A crucial identifying feature is its reinforcement learning (RL) step, which was used to improve the design's responses beyond the standard pre-training and tweak procedure. By including RL, DeepSeek-R1 can adjust more successfully to user feedback and objectives, eventually enhancing both relevance and clarity. In addition, DeepSeek-R1 employs a chain-of-thought (CoT) approach, meaning it's equipped to break down complex inquiries and reason through them in a detailed way. This guided reasoning procedure enables the model to produce more precise, transparent, and detailed responses. This design combines RL-based fine-tuning with CoT abilities, aiming to create structured reactions while focusing on interpretability and user interaction. With its extensive capabilities DeepSeek-R1 has actually caught the market's attention as a flexible text-generation design that can be incorporated into various workflows such as representatives, sensible thinking and data interpretation jobs.
DeepSeek-R1 uses a Mixture of Experts (MoE) architecture and is 671 billion criteria in size. The MoE architecture permits activation of 37 billion parameters, making it possible for efficient reasoning by routing queries to the most appropriate professional "clusters." This approach enables the design to concentrate on various issue domains while maintaining general efficiency. DeepSeek-R1 requires at least 800 GB of HBM memory in FP8 format for reasoning. In this post, we will utilize an ml.p5e.48 xlarge instance to deploy the model. ml.p5e.48 xlarge features 8 Nvidia H200 GPUs providing 1128 GB of GPU memory.
DeepSeek-R1 distilled designs bring the reasoning abilities of the main R1 model to more effective 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 sized, more efficient designs to mimic the behavior and reasoning patterns of the larger DeepSeek-R1 model, using it as an instructor model.
You can deploy DeepSeek-R1 design either through SageMaker JumpStart or Bedrock Marketplace. Because DeepSeek-R1 is an emerging design, we recommend deploying this design with guardrails in location. In this blog site, we will use Amazon Bedrock Guardrails to introduce safeguards, avoid damaging material, and examine models against crucial safety requirements. At the time of writing this blog, for DeepSeek-R1 releases on SageMaker JumpStart and Bedrock Marketplace, Bedrock Guardrails supports only the ApplyGuardrail API. You can produce several guardrails tailored to different use cases and apply 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 circumstances. To examine if you have quotas for P5e, open the Service Quotas console and under AWS Services, select Amazon SageMaker, and verify 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 limitation 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 correct AWS Identity and Gain Access To Management (IAM) authorizations to utilize Amazon Bedrock Guardrails. For directions, see Set up permissions to use guardrails for content filtering.
Implementing guardrails with the ApplyGuardrail API
Amazon Bedrock Guardrails permits you to present safeguards, avoid hazardous material, and evaluate designs against key security criteria. You can implement precaution for the DeepSeek-R1 model using the Amazon Bedrock ApplyGuardrail API. This enables you to apply guardrails to evaluate 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 develop the guardrail, see the GitHub repo.
The basic circulation includes 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 model for reasoning. After receiving the model's output, another guardrail check is used. If the output passes this final 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 stage. The examples showcased in the following areas demonstrate reasoning utilizing this API.
Deploy DeepSeek-R1 in Amazon Bedrock Marketplace
Amazon Bedrock Marketplace provides you access to over 100 popular, emerging, and specialized structure models (FMs) through Amazon Bedrock. To gain access to DeepSeek-R1 in Amazon Bedrock, wavedream.wiki complete the following actions:
