The rapid development of emerging vehicular edge computing (VEC) brings new opportunities and challenges for dynamic resource management. The increasing number of edge data centers, roadside units (RSUs), and network devices, however, makes resource management a complex task in VEC. On the other hand, the exponential growth of service applications and end-users makes corresponding QoS hard to maintain. Intent-Based Networking (IBN), based on Software-Defined Networking, was introduced to provide the ability to automatically handle and manage the networking requirements of different applications. Motivated by the IBN concept, in this paper, we propose a novel approach to jointly orchestrate networking and computing resources based on user requirements. The proposed solution constantly monitors user requirements and dynamically re-configures the system to satisfy desired states of the application. We compared our proposed solution with the state-of-the-art networking embedding algorithms using real-world taxi GPS traces. Results show that our proposed method is significantly faster (up to 95 resource utilization (up to 76 networking requests with various priorities (up to 71 small-scale prototype of the proposed intent management framework to validate our solution.
