Prerequisites
Before you get started with the DeepSeek Coder AMI, ensure you have the following prerequisites:
- Basic knowledge of AWS services, including EC2 instances and CloudFormation.
- An active AWS account with appropriate permissions.
- Enough vCPU limit to create g5g type instances
(Follow https://meetrix.io/articles/how-to-increase-aws-quota/ blog to ensure this)
Launching the AMI
Step 1: Find and Select 'DeepSeek Coder' AMI
- Log in to your AWS Management Console.
- Follow the provided links to access the 'DeepSeek Coder' product you wish to set up
a. DeepSeek-Coder-6.7B Instruct
b. DeepSeek-Coder-33B Instruct
Step 2: Initial Setup & Configuration
- Click the "Continue to Subscribe" button.
- After subscribing, you will need to accept the terms and conditions. Click on "Accept Terms" to proceed.
- Please wait for a few minutes while the processing takes place. Once it's completed, click on "Continue to Configuration".
- Select the "CloudFormation Template" as the fulfilment option and choose your preferred region on the "Configure this software" page. Afterward, click the "Continue to Launch" button.
- From the "Choose Action" dropdown menu in "Launch this software" page, select "Launch CloudFormation" and click "Launch" button.
Create CloudFormation Stack
Step1: Create stack
- Ensure the "Template is ready" radio button is selected under "Prepare template".
2. Click "Next".
Step2: Specify stack options
- Provide a unique "Stack name".
- Provide the "Admin Email" for SSL generation.
- For "DeploymentName", enter a name of your choice.
- Provide a public domain name for "DomainName". (Deepseekcoder will automatically try to setup SSL based on provided domain name, if that domain hosted on Route53. Please make sure your domain name hosted on route53. If its unsuccessful then you have to setup SSL manually)
- Choose an instance type, "InstanceType" (We recommend using the default instance type).
- Select your preferred "keyName".
- Set "SSHLocation" as "0.0.0.0/0".
- Keep "SubnetCidrBlock" as "10.0.0.0/24".
- Keep "VpcCidrBlock" as "10.0.0.0/16".
- Click "Next".
Step3: Configure stack options
- Choose "Roll back all stack resources" and "Delete all newly created resources" under the "Stack failure options" section.
- click "Next".
Step4: Review
- Review and verify the details you've entered.

2. Tick the box that says, "I acknowledge that AWS CloudFormation might create IAM resources with custom names".
![](https://meetrix.io/articles/content/images/2023/10/image-5.png)
3. Click "Submit".
Afterward, you'll be directed to the CloudFormation stacks page.
![](https://meetrix.io/articles/content/images/2024/01/Screenshot-2024-01-02-at-12.52.38.png)
Please wait for 5-10 minutes until the stack has been successfully created.

Update DNS
Step1: Copy IP Address
- Copy the public Ip labeled "PublicIp" in the "Outputs" tab.
![](https://meetrix.io/articles/content/images/2024/01/Screenshot-2024-01-02-at-15.20.10.png)
Step2: Update DNS
- Go to AWS Route 53 and navigate to "Hosted Zones".
- From there, select the domain you provided to "DomainName".
![](https://meetrix.io/articles/content/images/2024/01/Screenshot-2024-01-02-at-13.10.52.png)
3. Click "Edit record" in the "Record details" and then paste the copied "PublicIp" into the "value" textbox.
4. Click "Save".
Access Deepseek coder
You can access the Deepseek coder application through the "DashboardUrl" or 'DashboardUrlIp' provided in the "Outputs" tab.
![](https://meetrix.io/articles/content/images/2024/01/Screenshot-2024-01-02-at-15.21.16.png)
(If you encounter a "502 Bad Gateway error", please wait for about 5 minutes before refreshing the page)
![](https://meetrix.io/articles/content/images/2023/12/mixdashcoard.png)
Generate SSL Manually
DeepSeek Coder will automatically try to setup SSL based on provided domain name, if that domain hosted on Route53. If its unsuccessful then you have to setup SSL manually.
Step1: Copy IP Address
- Proceed with the instructions outlined in the above "Update DNS" section, if you have not already done so.
2. Copy the Public IP address indicated as "PublicIp" in the "Outputs" tab.
![](https://meetrix.io/articles/content/images/2024/01/Screenshot-2024-01-02-at-15.20.10.png)
Step2: Log in to the server
- Open the terminal and go to the directory where your private key is located.
- Paste the following command into your terminal and press Enter:
ssh -i <your key name> ubuntu@<Public IP address>
.
![](https://meetrix.io/articles/content/images/2024/01/Screenshot-2024-01-02-at-13.15.55.png)
3. Type "yes" and press Enter. This will log you into the server.
Step3: Generate SSL
Paste the following command into your terminal and press Enter and follow the instructions:
sudo /root/certificate_generate_standalone.sh
Admin Email is acquiring for generate SSL certificates.
Shutting Down Deepseek coder
- Click the link labeled "Deepseekcoder" in the "Resources" tab to access the EC2 instance, you will be directed to the Deepseekcoder instance in EC2.
![](https://meetrix.io/articles/content/images/2024/01/Screenshot-2024-01-08-at-13.11.54.png)
2. Select the instance by marking the checkbox and click "Stop instance" from the "Instance state" dropdown. You can restart the instance at your convenience by selecting "Start instance".

It has two key characteristics: it has a name (or identifier), which tells other developers what kind of data is stored in the variable, and the actual data itself, which gets stored at runtime. The type of data that a variable holds determines its behavior. Variables are used to store data temporarily for use within an algorithm or program.",
