DeepSeek's DSec Sandbox Platform Handles 3 Million Agentic Training Runs a Day
DeepSeek Elastic Compute (DSec)
DeepSeek Elastic Compute (DSec) is a production sandbox platform that unifies FnCall, container, microVM, and full-VM backends under one SDK, coordinating placement and lifecycle across clusters. Co-designed with the reinforcement learning framework, it decouples stateful rollout execution from preemptible GPU training and mitigates reward hacking. A single unit spans about 160 nodes, serving roughly 3 million sandboxes daily, supporting over 380,000 concurrent sandboxes and more than 5,000 creations per second.

It seems every DeepSeek paper/patent has a huge number of authors, and this one is no exception. They couldn't even fit everyone on the page, there are 31 others not shown. This could be an asset protection strategy (i.e., human assets). Imagine if there were only 3 authors. Those authors may get hired away by competitors. If you list every employee on every paper then competitors don't know who to lure away.

The topic isn't as interesting as how 131 authors communicated to get this out.

380.000 concurrent sandboxes on 160 Epyc based server nodes. Crazy stuff

I wonder if they are signalling that if they can do this for training, then they can create an style agent swarm to hack anyone with 380k concurrent agents.

Is this like agent substrate?
