1. A device comprising:
a processing system including a processor; and
a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processing system, facilitate performance of operations, the operations comprising:
identifying that a virtualized network (VN) is in a first state based on monitoring of the VN;
determining that the VN is in a second state due to a configuration change to the VN;
measuring a key performance indicator (KPI) associated with a first portion of the VN based on the monitoring of the VN resulting in a measurement; and
allocating a group of network resources to the first portion of the VN in response to determining that the measurement does not satisfy a threshold.
