Over the past few months even weeks, DeepSeek has emerged as an unexpected guest in the AI market. It literally redefined the AI industry and cost trillions of dollars loss in stock markets. Even though I am also interested in, I won’t focus on that side of DeepSeek today. The reason it caused such a fundamental change is that it uses significantly fewer resources than its competitors in the market. The level of optimization is so high that you can run a fully pre-trained model even on a laptop. Today, I will take you through how to run DeepSeek R1…

Consider a scenario where you have multiple instances doing the same job and you need to cache the result of a function which takes about 30 seconds. This function’s result needs to be cached to avoid redundant executions across different instances. The…
