In one example, the present disclosure describes a device, computer-readable medium, and method for dynamically modifying parameters for the delivery of data services over a network. For instance, in one example, a plurality of network slices is provided in a communications network. Each network slice of the plurality of network slices is configured to carry data over the communications network subject to a different combination of network service metrics. When a triggering event is detected in data carried over the communications network using a default slice of the plurality of network slices, the data is dynamically reassigned from the default network slice to a new network slice of the plurality of network slices in response to the detecting.
