In general, techniques are described for automatic intent provisioning and management in computer networks. A device comprising a processor, a memory, and an interface may perform the techniques. The processor may obtain a policy that includes high-level configuration data defining a service to be deployed within a network, the high-level configuration data including resource selector criteria that identifies one or more criteria for selecting a resource to support the service from a plurality of potential resources. The processor may also determine, based on the resource selector criteria, the resource to support the service from the plurality of potential resources, and translate the high-level configuration data to low-level configuration data specific to the determined resource. The memory may store the low-level configuration data specific to the determined resource. The interface may enable configuration, when provisioning the service, the determined resource using the low-level configuration data specific to the determined resource.
