With this launch, you can now deploy DeepSeek AI's first-generation frontier design, DeepSeek-R1, along with the distilled versions varying from 1.5 to 70 billion criteria to construct, experiment, and responsibly scale your generative AI ideas on AWS.

In this post, we show how to get going with DeepSeek-R1 on Amazon Bedrock Marketplace and SageMaker JumpStart. You can follow similar steps to release the distilled versions of the models too.

Overview of DeepSeek-R1

DeepSeek-R1 is a big language design (LLM) established by DeepSeek AI that utilizes support learning to improve thinking capabilities through a multi-stage training procedure from a DeepSeek-V3-Base foundation. A key differentiating feature is its reinforcement knowing (RL) step, which was utilized to fine-tune the design's actions 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 significance and clearness. In addition, DeepSeek-R1 utilizes a chain-of-thought (CoT) method, indicating it's geared up to break down intricate queries and factor through them in a detailed manner. This directed thinking process permits the model to produce more accurate, transparent, and detailed responses. This design integrates RL-based fine-tuning with CoT capabilities, aiming to create structured actions while focusing on interpretability and user interaction. With its comprehensive abilities DeepSeek-R1 has actually caught the market's attention as a flexible text-generation design that can be integrated into different workflows such as representatives, sensible reasoning and data analysis jobs.

DeepSeek-R1 utilizes a Mix of Experts (MoE) architecture and is 671 billion specifications in size. The MoE architecture allows activation of 37 billion criteria, allowing efficient reasoning by routing queries to the most pertinent professional "clusters." This method permits the design to concentrate on various problem domains while maintaining total performance. DeepSeek-R1 needs a minimum of 800 GB of HBM memory in FP8 format for inference. In this post, we will utilize an ml.p5e.48 xlarge circumstances to release the design. ml.p5e.48 xlarge includes 8 Nvidia H200 GPUs offering 1128 GB of GPU memory.

DeepSeek-R1 distilled models bring the reasoning 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 describes a procedure of training smaller sized, more efficient models to imitate the behavior and setiathome.berkeley.edu thinking patterns of the bigger DeepSeek-R1 design, using it as a teacher design.

You can release DeepSeek-R1 design either through SageMaker JumpStart or Bedrock Marketplace. Because DeepSeek-R1 is an emerging model, we recommend releasing this model with guardrails in location. In this blog site, we will use Amazon Bedrock Guardrails to present safeguards, prevent harmful content, and evaluate models against crucial security criteria. At the time of writing this blog, for DeepSeek-R1 deployments on SageMaker JumpStart and Bedrock Marketplace, Bedrock Guardrails supports only the ApplyGuardrail API. You can create multiple guardrails tailored to various usage cases and apply them to the DeepSeek-R1 design, enhancing 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 instance. To check if you have quotas for P5e, open the Service Quotas console and under AWS Services, choose Amazon SageMaker, and confirm you're utilizing 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 increase, create a limit increase demand and connect to your account group.

Because you will be deploying 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 authorizations to use guardrails for material filtering.

Implementing guardrails with the ApplyGuardrail API

Amazon Bedrock Guardrails allows you to introduce safeguards, prevent damaging material, and examine designs against essential safety requirements. You can execute safety procedures for the DeepSeek-R1 model using the Amazon Bedrock ApplyGuardrail API. This allows you to apply guardrails to assess user inputs and design actions deployed on Amazon Bedrock Marketplace and SageMaker JumpStart. You can develop 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 actions: First, the system receives 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 design for reasoning. After receiving the design's output, another guardrail check is applied. If the output passes this last check, it's returned as the final 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 happened at the input or output phase. The examples showcased in the following areas show inference using this API.
