Claim 17:
18. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing computer executable instructions for intent based network slice management, comprising instructions to:
receive, at a network management function, an intent for a network slice constituent;
configure computing resources for the network slice constituent to satisfy the intent based on expected performance of the computing resources;
receive feedback with respect to actual performance of the network slice constituent;
determine, based on analysis of the feedback by a management data analytics function (MDAF), a predicted deficiency of the network slice constituent not being able to satisfy the intent, wherein the predicted deficiency is with respect to a constraint on a cost or efficiency of the intent; and
modify the configuration of the computing resources based on the feedback and the predicted deficiency to satisfy the intent by reducing an allocation of computing resources to satisfy the intent at a lower cost.
