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, together with the distilled variations varying from 1.5 to 70 billion criteria to develop, experiment, and responsibly scale your generative AI concepts on AWS.
In this post, we demonstrate how to get begun with DeepSeek-R1 on Amazon Bedrock Marketplace and SageMaker JumpStart. You can follow comparable steps to deploy the distilled versions of the models also.
Overview of DeepSeek-R1
DeepSeek-R1 is a big language design (LLM) established by DeepSeek AI that uses support learning to improve reasoning abilities through a multi-stage training procedure from a DeepSeek-V3-Base structure. A crucial identifying function is its support knowing (RL) action, which was utilized to refine the design's reactions beyond the basic pre-training and tweak process. By integrating RL, DeepSeek-R1 can adapt more successfully to user feedback and goals, ultimately improving both significance and clarity. In addition, DeepSeek-R1 utilizes a chain-of-thought (CoT) technique, meaning it's equipped to break down complicated questions and factor through them in a detailed manner. This directed reasoning procedure permits the design to produce more accurate, transparent, and detailed answers. This model integrates 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 caught the market's attention as a flexible text-generation model that can be integrated into various workflows such as agents, rational reasoning and data analysis jobs.
DeepSeek-R1 utilizes a Mix of Experts (MoE) architecture and is 671 billion criteria in size. The MoE architecture allows activation of 37 billion parameters, allowing effective reasoning by routing queries to the most appropriate professional "clusters." This approach enables the model to focus on different issue domains while maintaining general performance. DeepSeek-R1 needs a minimum of 800 GB of HBM memory in FP8 format for reasoning. In this post, we will use an ml.p5e.48 xlarge circumstances to deploy the design. ml.p5e.48 xlarge includes 8 Nvidia H200 GPUs supplying 1128 GB of GPU memory.
DeepSeek-R1 distilled models bring the thinking abilities of the main R1 design to more effective architectures based upon 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 effective designs to simulate the habits and reasoning patterns of the bigger DeepSeek-R1 model, 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 model with guardrails in place. In this blog, we will utilize Amazon Bedrock Guardrails to present safeguards, prevent damaging content, and evaluate designs against essential safety requirements. At the time of composing this blog site, for DeepSeek-R1 deployments on SageMaker JumpStart and Bedrock Marketplace, Bedrock Guardrails supports just the ApplyGuardrail API. You can produce several guardrails tailored to various usage cases and apply them to the DeepSeek-R1 design, enhancing user experiences and standardizing safety controls across your generative AI applications.
Prerequisites
To deploy the DeepSeek-R1 design, you require access to an ml.p5e circumstances. To examine if you have quotas for P5e, open the Service Quotas console and under AWS Services, choose Amazon SageMaker, and verify you're utilizing ml.p5e.48 xlarge for endpoint use. Make certain that you have at least one ml.P5e.48 xlarge instance in the AWS Region you are deploying. To request a limitation boost, create a limit increase request and reach out to your account team.
Because you will be deploying this model with Amazon Bedrock Guardrails, make certain you have the right AWS Identity and Gain Access To Management (IAM) consents to use Amazon Bedrock Guardrails. For instructions, see Establish authorizations to use guardrails for content filtering.
Implementing guardrails with the ApplyGuardrail API
Amazon Bedrock Guardrails enables you to introduce safeguards, prevent hazardous content, and assess models against crucial safety requirements. You can carry out precaution for the DeepSeek-R1 design utilizing the Amazon Bedrock ApplyGuardrail API. This permits you to apply guardrails to evaluate user inputs and design actions on Amazon Bedrock Marketplace and SageMaker JumpStart. You can produce a guardrail using the Amazon Bedrock console or the API. For the example code to create the guardrail, see the GitHub repo.
The basic flow includes the following steps: First, pediascape.science 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 reasoning. After getting the model's output, another guardrail check is applied. If the output passes this final check, it's returned as the last 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 sections demonstrate inference utilizing this API.
Deploy DeepSeek-R1 in Amazon Bedrock Marketplace
Amazon Bedrock Marketplace provides you access to over 100 popular, emerging, and specialized foundation models (FMs) through Amazon Bedrock. To gain access to DeepSeek-R1 in Amazon Bedrock, complete the following steps:
1. On the Amazon Bedrock console, choose Model catalog under Foundation designs in the navigation pane.

Optionally, you can set up innovative security and facilities settings, consisting of virtual private cloud (VPC) networking, service role permissions, and file encryption settings. For the majority of utilize cases, the default settings will work well. However, for production deployments, you may wish to evaluate these settings to align with your organization's security and compliance requirements.
7. Choose Deploy to start using the model.
When the implementation is complete, you can test DeepSeek-R1's capabilities straight in the Amazon Bedrock playground.
8. Choose Open in play area to access an interactive interface where you can try out various triggers and change design criteria like temperature and maximum length.
When utilizing R1 with Bedrock's InvokeModel and Playground Console, use DeepSeek's chat template for ideal results. For example, content for reasoning.
This is an excellent method to explore the design's reasoning and text generation abilities before incorporating it into your applications. The play ground offers immediate feedback, helping you understand how the model reacts to numerous inputs and letting you fine-tune your prompts for ideal outcomes.
You can rapidly check the model in the playground through the UI. However, to invoke the deployed model programmatically with any Amazon Bedrock APIs, you need to get the endpoint ARN.
