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 release DeepSeek AI's first-generation frontier design, DeepSeek-R1, together with the distilled variations ranging from 1.5 to 70 billion criteria to develop, experiment, and responsibly scale your generative AI ideas on AWS.
In this post, we demonstrate how to get going with DeepSeek-R1 on Amazon Bedrock Marketplace and SageMaker JumpStart. You can follow comparable actions to release 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 discovering to enhance thinking capabilities through a multi-stage training procedure from a DeepSeek-V3-Base structure. A key identifying function is its support knowing (RL) action, which was used to refine the model's actions beyond the basic pre-training and tweak process. By including RL, DeepSeek-R1 can adjust more successfully to user feedback and goals, eventually improving both importance and clearness. In addition, DeepSeek-R1 employs a chain-of-thought (CoT) method, implying it's equipped to break down intricate inquiries and factor through them in a detailed manner. This assisted reasoning process allows the model to produce more accurate, transparent, and detailed answers. This design integrates RL-based fine-tuning with CoT abilities, aiming to produce structured responses while focusing on interpretability and user interaction. With its wide-ranging abilities DeepSeek-R1 has recorded the industry's attention as a flexible text-generation design that can be integrated into various workflows such as agents, logical reasoning and information analysis jobs.
DeepSeek-R1 uses a Mixture of Experts (MoE) architecture and is 671 billion specifications in size. The MoE architecture enables activation of 37 billion parameters, making it possible for effective inference by routing queries to the most relevant expert "clusters." This technique permits the model to focus on different issue domains while maintaining general efficiency. DeepSeek-R1 requires a minimum of 800 GB of HBM memory in FP8 format for reasoning. In this post, we will utilize an ml.p5e.48 xlarge circumstances to release the design. ml.p5e.48 xlarge comes with 8 Nvidia H200 GPUs supplying 1128 GB of GPU memory.
DeepSeek-R1 distilled models bring the thinking capabilities of the main R1 design 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 procedure of training smaller, more effective designs to imitate the habits and thinking patterns of the bigger DeepSeek-R1 model, utilizing it as an instructor design.
You can release DeepSeek-R1 design either through SageMaker JumpStart or Bedrock Marketplace. Because DeepSeek-R1 is an emerging design, we advise releasing this model with guardrails in location. In this blog site, we will utilize Amazon Bedrock Guardrails to present safeguards, prevent damaging material, and examine designs against key security criteria. At the time of composing this blog site, for DeepSeek-R1 releases on SageMaker JumpStart and Bedrock Marketplace, Bedrock Guardrails supports just the ApplyGuardrail API. You can develop several guardrails tailored to different usage cases and use 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 need access to an ml.p5e circumstances. To check if you have quotas for P5e, open the Service Quotas console and under AWS Services, pick Amazon SageMaker, and verify you're utilizing 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 request a limitation boost, create a limit boost request 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) consents to utilize Amazon Bedrock Guardrails. For guidelines, see Establish consents to utilize guardrails for content filtering.
Implementing guardrails with the ApplyGuardrail API
Amazon Bedrock Guardrails allows you to present safeguards, avoid damaging material, and examine designs against essential safety requirements. You can execute precaution for the DeepSeek-R1 model utilizing the Amazon Bedrock ApplyGuardrail API. This permits you to use guardrails to evaluate user inputs and model responses released on Amazon Bedrock Marketplace and SageMaker JumpStart. You can produce a guardrail using the Amazon Bedrock console or the API. For the example code to produce the guardrail, see the GitHub repo.
The basic circulation includes the following steps: First, the system gets 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 receiving the model's output, another guardrail check is used. If the output passes this final check, it's returned as the final outcome. 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 occurred at the input or output stage. The examples showcased in the following sections demonstrate reasoning utilizing this API.
