Provided is a method for managing a network slice instance (NSI) in a communications network. A first performance of the NSI is monitored by a first network slice subnet instance (NSSI) associated with the NSI. A first node obtains, from a second node, a request to monitor a second performance of the NSI. The second performance is of one or more microservices to provide data on a sector of the network. The first node determines, based on one or more requirements of the request, to perform one of: i) initiating (303) a creation of a second NSSI adapted to monitor the second performance based on the requirements, and ii) modifying, based on the requirements, an existing second NSSI, to monitor the second performance. The created or modified second NSSI being: a) independent from, and b) sharable with, the first subnet slice instance.
