Claim 15:
16. A computer program product for establishing network slices within a physical network having a plurality of network elements, the computer program product comprising:
one or more computer-readable storage media;
program instructions, stored on at least one of the one or more computer-readable storage media, to receive a request to instantiate a network slice at a network element, wherein the network element includes a data path table of network slices to be instantiated;
program instructions, stored on at least one of the one or more computer-readable storage media, to determine that a performance metric of the network element is below a threshold using a supervised machine learning model that monitors network element resource utilization and network slice requirements; and
program instructions, stored on at least one of the one or more computer-readable storage media, to withhold the request to instantiate the network slice from the data path table of network slices to be instantiated.
