Today, we are excited 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 model, DeepSeek-R1, along with the distilled versions varying from 1.5 to 70 billion parameters to construct, experiment, and properly scale your generative AI ideas on AWS.
In this post, we how to get begun with DeepSeek-R1 on Amazon Bedrock Marketplace and SageMaker JumpStart. You can follow similar steps to release the distilled variations of the models too.
Overview of DeepSeek-R1
DeepSeek-R1 is a large language design (LLM) developed by DeepSeek AI that utilizes support discovering to enhance reasoning capabilities through a multi-stage training process from a DeepSeek-V3-Base foundation. A crucial identifying feature is its reinforcement knowing (RL) action, which was utilized to refine the model's actions beyond the standard pre-training and tweak procedure. By including RL, DeepSeek-R1 can adapt more efficiently to user feedback and goals, eventually boosting both relevance and clearness. In addition, DeepSeek-R1 utilizes a chain-of-thought (CoT) approach, meaning it's geared up to break down complex questions and reason through them in a detailed manner. This directed reasoning procedure permits the model to produce more precise, transparent, and detailed answers. This design combines RL-based fine-tuning with CoT abilities, aiming to produce structured responses while concentrating on interpretability and user interaction. With its wide-ranging abilities DeepSeek-R1 has actually recorded the market's attention as a versatile text-generation design that can be integrated into different workflows such as representatives, logical reasoning and data analysis 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, making it possible for efficient reasoning by routing inquiries to the most relevant specialist "clusters." This technique permits the model to specialize in different problem domains while maintaining overall effectiveness. 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 instance to deploy the design. ml.p5e.48 xlarge features 8 Nvidia H200 GPUs offering 1128 GB of GPU memory.
DeepSeek-R1 distilled designs bring the reasoning abilities of the main R1 model to more efficient 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, more efficient models to simulate the behavior and thinking patterns of the bigger DeepSeek-R1 design, 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 recommend releasing this design with guardrails in location. In this blog site, we will utilize Amazon Bedrock Guardrails to introduce safeguards, avoid hazardous content, and assess models against key security requirements. At the time of composing this blog site, for DeepSeek-R1 implementations on SageMaker JumpStart and Bedrock Marketplace, Bedrock Guardrails supports only the ApplyGuardrail API. You can develop multiple guardrails tailored to different usage cases and apply them to the DeepSeek-R1 model, enhancing user experiences and standardizing security controls across your generative AI applications.
Prerequisites
To release the DeepSeek-R1 model, 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 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 releasing. To ask for a limit increase, create a limitation increase demand and connect to your account group.
Because you will be deploying this model with Amazon Bedrock Guardrails, make certain you have the proper AWS Identity and Gain Access To Management (IAM) permissions to utilize Amazon Bedrock Guardrails. For instructions, see Set up authorizations to use guardrails for content filtering.
Implementing guardrails with the ApplyGuardrail API
Amazon Bedrock Guardrails enables you to present safeguards, prevent harmful material, and examine designs against essential safety criteria. You can implement safety steps for the DeepSeek-R1 model using the Amazon Bedrock ApplyGuardrail API. This allows you to use guardrails to assess user inputs and model actions deployed on Amazon Bedrock Marketplace and SageMaker JumpStart. You can produce a guardrail utilizing the Amazon Bedrock console or the API. For the example code to produce 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 to the model for reasoning. After getting the model's output, another guardrail check is applied. If the output passes this last check, it's returned as the result. However, if either the input or output is stepped in by the guardrail, a message is returned suggesting the nature of the intervention and whether it occurred at the input or output stage. The examples showcased in the following areas show inference using this API.
