Today, we are thrilled to reveal 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 variations ranging from 1.5 to 70 billion specifications to develop, experiment, and responsibly scale your generative AI ideas on AWS.
In this post, we demonstrate how to start with DeepSeek-R1 on Amazon Bedrock Marketplace and SageMaker JumpStart. You can follow similar steps to deploy the distilled variations of the designs too.
Overview of DeepSeek-R1
DeepSeek-R1 is a big language design (LLM) established by DeepSeek AI that utilizes support learning to improve reasoning capabilities through a multi-stage training procedure from a DeepSeek-V3-Base structure. An essential identifying feature is its reinforcement knowing (RL) action, which was utilized to refine the model's responses beyond the standard pre-training and fine-tuning procedure. By incorporating RL, DeepSeek-R1 can adjust better to user feedback and objectives, eventually improving both importance and clarity. In addition, DeepSeek-R1 employs a chain-of-thought (CoT) method, implying it's geared up to break down intricate queries and factor through them in a detailed way. This guided thinking process allows the design to produce more precise, transparent, and detailed answers. This model combines RL-based fine-tuning with CoT capabilities, aiming to create structured actions while concentrating on interpretability and user interaction. With its extensive capabilities DeepSeek-R1 has caught the industry's attention as a versatile text-generation design that can be integrated into numerous workflows such as agents, sensible reasoning and information interpretation tasks.
DeepSeek-R1 uses a Mix of Experts (MoE) architecture and is 671 billion parameters in size. The MoE architecture permits activation of 37 billion criteria, allowing efficient reasoning by routing queries to the most appropriate expert "clusters." This approach enables the design to concentrate on various problem domains while maintaining total performance. DeepSeek-R1 requires at least 800 GB of HBM memory in FP8 format for inference. In this post, we will use an ml.p5e.48 xlarge circumstances to release the model. ml.p5e.48 xlarge features 8 Nvidia H200 GPUs offering 1128 GB of GPU memory.
DeepSeek-R1 distilled designs bring the thinking capabilities of the main R1 model to more efficient architectures based upon 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 effective models to imitate the behavior and thinking patterns of the bigger DeepSeek-R1 design, using it as an instructor design.
You can deploy DeepSeek-R1 model either through SageMaker JumpStart or Bedrock Marketplace. Because DeepSeek-R1 is an emerging design, we advise releasing this design with guardrails in location. In this blog site, we will utilize Amazon Bedrock Guardrails to introduce safeguards, avoid damaging material, and examine designs against key safety requirements. At the time of writing this blog, for DeepSeek-R1 implementations on SageMaker JumpStart and Bedrock Marketplace, Bedrock Guardrails supports just the ApplyGuardrail API. You can create numerous guardrails tailored to various use 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 examine if you have quotas for P5e, open the Service Quotas console and under AWS Services, pick Amazon SageMaker, and confirm you're using ml.p5e.48 xlarge for endpoint use. Make certain that you have at least one ml.P5e.48 xlarge circumstances in the AWS Region you are releasing. To ask for a limitation boost, produce a limitation increase demand and reach out to your account group.
Because you will be releasing this design with Amazon Bedrock Guardrails, make certain you have the proper AWS Identity and Gain Access To Management (IAM) authorizations to utilize Amazon Bedrock Guardrails. For directions, see Set up consents to use guardrails for content filtering.
Implementing guardrails with the ApplyGuardrail API
Amazon Bedrock Guardrails permits you to present safeguards, prevent harmful material, and evaluate models against crucial security requirements. You can carry out safety measures for the DeepSeek-R1 design utilizing the Amazon Bedrock ApplyGuardrail API. This allows you to use guardrails to assess user inputs and model actions released on Amazon Bedrock Marketplace and SageMaker JumpStart. You can develop a guardrail using the Amazon Bedrock console or the API. For the example code to create the guardrail, see the GitHub repo.
The general 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 model for inference. After receiving the design's output, another guardrail check is applied. If the output passes this final check, it's returned as the 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 took place at the input or output phase. The examples showcased in the following sections demonstrate reasoning using this API.
