1. A method of provisioning a network, comprising:
with a network controller:
identifying a first network intent of a computing network based at least in part on an execution of a user interface (UI) at a client device;
identifying a modification of at least one object within the first network intent at the client device as the first network intent is being modified, the modification defining a delta between the first network intent and a second network intent, wherein:
the delta comprises a size that is smaller relative to the first network intent and the second network intent, and
the delta is defined by a change log identifying a type of change log item, the change log item storing the modification of the at least one object in a base class;

with a provisioning service executed by the network controller:
receiving the delta as a payload from the client device; and
provisioning the second network intent on at least one computing device within the computing network based at least in part on the delta.
