mapping a plurality of wireless network underlying technical service categories to a plurality of corresponding user template selectable options that are based on business logic for provisioning network service requests, wherein the mapping includes mapping each wireless network underlying technical service category of the plurality of wireless network underlying technical service categories to a respective corresponding user template selectable option of the plurality of corresponding user template selectable options and the underlying technical service categories are associated with underlying different technical services which cross a plurality of network domains and a plurality of network service providers that provide the underlying technical services;
providing a user interface that includes the selectable options;
receiving a network service request for a network service including option selections of one or more of the selectable options corresponding to requirements of the network service request;
determining a plurality of applicable technical services for provisioning the network service request based on the mapping of the technical service categories and dependencies between different technical services;
generating one or more service orders for the network service based on the determined plurality of applicable technical services and available network resources indicated by network inventory;
provisioning the network service by inputting the one or more service orders to a configuration-driven universal network orchestrator having an open framework that enables recursive usage from multiple layers of service relay; and
receiving at the universal network orchestrator run-time feedback including closed loop service monitoring regarding operation of the network service, enabling the configuration-driven universal network orchestrator to make applicable adjustments in the provisioning of the network service.
