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 model, DeepSeek-R1, in addition to the distilled versions ranging from 1.5 to 70 billion criteria to build, experiment, and responsibly scale your generative AI concepts on AWS.
In this post, we demonstrate how to begin with DeepSeek-R1 on Amazon Bedrock Marketplace and SageMaker JumpStart. You can follow similar steps to release the distilled variations of the designs too.
Overview of DeepSeek-R1
DeepSeek-R1 is a large language model (LLM) established by DeepSeek AI that utilizes support learning to boost thinking capabilities through a multi-stage training procedure from a DeepSeek-V3-Base foundation. A key identifying function is its reinforcement knowing (RL) step, which was utilized to refine the model's actions beyond the standard pre-training and tweak process. By integrating RL, DeepSeek-R1 can adjust better to user feedback and goals, ultimately enhancing both importance and clearness. In addition, DeepSeek-R1 uses a chain-of-thought (CoT) method, indicating it's geared up to break down complex inquiries and factor through them in a detailed manner. This directed thinking procedure allows the model to produce more accurate, transparent, and detailed answers. This model combines RL-based fine-tuning with CoT abilities, aiming to produce structured responses while focusing on interpretability and user interaction. With its comprehensive capabilities DeepSeek-R1 has actually captured the industry's attention as a flexible text-generation design that can be incorporated into various workflows such as agents, logical thinking and information analysis tasks.
DeepSeek-R1 utilizes a Mix of Experts (MoE) architecture and is 671 billion parameters in size. The MoE architecture allows activation of 37 billion criteria, making it possible for effective reasoning by routing questions to the most relevant professional "clusters." This approach enables the model to focus on various issue domains while maintaining overall performance. 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 design. ml.p5e.48 xlarge includes 8 Nvidia H200 GPUs supplying 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 describes a process of training smaller, more effective designs to mimic the habits 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 model, we suggest releasing this design with guardrails in place. In this blog, we will utilize Amazon Bedrock Guardrails to present safeguards, avoid damaging material, and examine models against crucial security requirements. At the time of writing this blog, for DeepSeek-R1 releases on SageMaker JumpStart and Bedrock Marketplace, Bedrock Guardrails supports just the ApplyGuardrail API. You can create several guardrails tailored to various usage cases and use them to the DeepSeek-R1 design, improving user experiences and standardizing safety controls across your generative AI applications.
Prerequisites
To deploy the DeepSeek-R1 model, you need access to an ml.p5e instance. To check 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 circumstances in the AWS Region you are deploying. To request a limitation increase, produce a limitation boost request and connect to your account group.
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) authorizations to use Amazon Bedrock Guardrails. For instructions, see Establish consents to utilize guardrails for content filtering.
Implementing guardrails with the ApplyGuardrail API
Amazon Bedrock Guardrails permits you to introduce safeguards, prevent harmful material, and assess designs against key security requirements. You can carry out safety procedures for the DeepSeek-R1 design using the Amazon Bedrock ApplyGuardrail API. This enables you to apply 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 develop the guardrail, see the GitHub repo.
The general flow involves 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 to the model for inference. After getting 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 suggesting the nature of the intervention and whether it occurred at the input or output phase. The examples showcased in the following areas show inference 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, total the following steps:
1. On the Amazon Bedrock console, select Model catalog under Foundation designs in the navigation pane.
At the time of writing this post, you can use the InvokeModel API to conjure up the model. It doesn't support Converse APIs and other Amazon Bedrock tooling.
2. Filter for DeepSeek as a service provider and select the DeepSeek-R1 design.
The design detail page offers important details about the design's abilities, rates structure, and implementation standards. You can find detailed use guidelines, consisting of sample API calls and code snippets for combination. The model supports various text generation jobs, consisting of material production, code generation, and question answering, utilizing its support discovering optimization and CoT thinking abilities.
The page also consists of implementation options and licensing details to help you get started with DeepSeek-R1 in your applications.
3. To begin utilizing DeepSeek-R1, select Deploy.
You will be prompted to set up the implementation details for DeepSeek-R1. The design ID will be pre-populated.
4. For Endpoint name, get in an endpoint name (in between 1-50 alphanumeric characters).
5. For Variety of circumstances, enter a number of instances (between 1-100).
6. For example type, choose your circumstances type. For optimal efficiency with DeepSeek-R1, a GPU-based circumstances type like ml.p5e.48 xlarge is advised.
Optionally, you can set up sophisticated security and facilities settings, consisting of virtual private cloud (VPC) networking, service function authorizations, and file encryption settings. For the majority of use cases, the default settings will work well. However, for production deployments, you might wish to review these settings to line up with your organization's security and compliance requirements.
7. Choose Deploy to start utilizing the design.
When the release is complete, you can check DeepSeek-R1's capabilities straight in the Amazon Bedrock play area.
8. Choose Open in playground to access an interactive user interface where you can explore different triggers and change model parameters like temperature level and optimum length.
When using R1 with Bedrock's InvokeModel and Playground Console, use DeepSeek's chat template for optimal results. For example, content for reasoning.
This is an excellent method to check out the design's reasoning and text generation capabilities before integrating it into your applications. The play ground provides immediate feedback, helping you understand how the model responds to different inputs and letting you fine-tune your triggers for optimal results.
You can rapidly test the model in the play ground through the UI. However, to conjure up the deployed design programmatically with any Amazon Bedrock APIs, you need to get the endpoint ARN.
