Today, we are delighted 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, in addition to the distilled variations ranging from 1.5 to 70 billion specifications 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 comparable actions to release the distilled variations of the models also.
Overview of DeepSeek-R1
DeepSeek-R1 is a large language design (LLM) established by DeepSeek AI that uses reinforcement discovering to improve thinking capabilities through a multi-stage training process from a DeepSeek-V3-Base foundation. An essential identifying function is its support knowing (RL) action, which was utilized to refine the design's responses beyond the basic pre-training and fine-tuning process. By including RL, DeepSeek-R1 can adjust more successfully to user feedback and objectives, eventually boosting both importance and clearness. In addition, DeepSeek-R1 utilizes a chain-of-thought (CoT) approach, meaning it's equipped to break down complicated queries and reason through them in a detailed way. This guided thinking procedure permits the design to produce more accurate, transparent, and detailed responses. This model combines RL-based fine-tuning with CoT capabilities, aiming to create structured reactions while concentrating on interpretability and user interaction. With its comprehensive capabilities DeepSeek-R1 has recorded the industry's attention as a flexible text-generation model that can be incorporated into numerous workflows such as agents, sensible thinking and data analysis tasks.
DeepSeek-R1 uses a Mixture of Experts (MoE) architecture and is 671 billion specifications in size. The MoE architecture enables activation of 37 billion criteria, making it possible for effective inference by routing inquiries to the most appropriate professional "clusters." This technique allows the design to concentrate on different issue domains while maintaining general performance. DeepSeek-R1 requires 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 deploy the design. ml.p5e.48 xlarge features 8 Nvidia H200 GPUs supplying 1128 GB of GPU memory.
DeepSeek-R1 distilled models bring the reasoning capabilities of the main R1 model to more effective 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 effective models to imitate the behavior and thinking patterns of the larger DeepSeek-R1 model, utilizing it as a teacher model.
You can release DeepSeek-R1 design either through SageMaker JumpStart or Bedrock Marketplace. Because DeepSeek-R1 is an emerging design, we recommend deploying this design with guardrails in location. In this blog, we will utilize Amazon Bedrock Guardrails to present safeguards, avoid hazardous content, and examine designs against essential security requirements. At the time of this blog site, for DeepSeek-R1 implementations on SageMaker JumpStart and Bedrock Marketplace, Bedrock Guardrails supports only the ApplyGuardrail API. You can develop numerous guardrails tailored to different use cases and apply them to the DeepSeek-R1 model, enhancing user experiences and standardizing security controls across your generative AI applications.
Prerequisites
To deploy the DeepSeek-R1 design, you need access to an ml.p5e circumstances. To examine 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 usage. 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, develop a limitation boost demand and reach out to your account group.
Because you will be deploying this design with Amazon Bedrock Guardrails, make certain you have the correct AWS Identity and Gain Access To Management (IAM) approvals to use Amazon Bedrock Guardrails. For guidelines, see Set up authorizations to utilize guardrails for content filtering.
Implementing guardrails with the ApplyGuardrail API
Amazon Bedrock Guardrails allows you to introduce safeguards, prevent damaging content, and examine designs against essential safety requirements. You can implement safety procedures for the DeepSeek-R1 design using the Amazon Bedrock ApplyGuardrail API. This allows you to apply guardrails to examine 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 create the guardrail, see the GitHub repo.
The general flow includes the following actions: 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 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 intervened by the guardrail, a message is returned indicating the nature of the intervention and setiathome.berkeley.edu whether it happened at the input or output stage. The examples showcased in the following areas show inference utilizing this API.
Deploy DeepSeek-R1 in Amazon Bedrock Marketplace
Amazon Bedrock Marketplace gives you access to over 100 popular, emerging, and specialized structure designs (FMs) through Amazon Bedrock. To gain access to DeepSeek-R1 in Amazon Bedrock, complete the following actions:
1. On the Amazon Bedrock console, select Model catalog under Foundation designs in the navigation pane.

Optionally, you can configure advanced security and infrastructure settings, consisting of virtual private cloud (VPC) networking, service function consents, and file encryption settings. For the majority of utilize cases, the default settings will work well. However, for production releases, you might wish to review these settings to line up with your company's security and compliance requirements.
7. Choose Deploy to start utilizing the design.
When the implementation is total, you can check DeepSeek-R1's abilities straight in the Amazon Bedrock playground.
8. Choose Open in playground to access an interactive interface where you can explore different prompts and adjust model specifications like temperature and optimum length.
When utilizing R1 with Bedrock's InvokeModel and Playground Console, utilize DeepSeek's chat template for ideal results. For instance, content for reasoning.
This is an excellent method to explore the design's thinking and text generation abilities before incorporating it into your applications. The play ground offers immediate feedback, helping you comprehend how the design reacts to different inputs and letting you tweak your prompts for ideal results.
You can quickly test the model in the playground through the UI. However, to invoke the deployed design programmatically with any Amazon Bedrock APIs, you need to get the endpoint ARN.
Run inference utilizing guardrails with the deployed DeepSeek-R1 endpoint
