Embodiments provide a network slice deployment method and apparatus. The method includes: obtaining slice coexistence relationship information of a first network slice, where the slice coexistence relationship information is used to indicate information about a second network slice that has a slice coexistence relationship with the first network slice; determining, based on the slice coexistence relationship information, a deployment mode of a network function entity required by the first network slice; and deploying the network function entity in the deployment mode. According to the embodiments, in a scenario in which one terminal device simultaneously accesses a plurality of network slices, how to deploy a network function entity shared by the plurality of network slices can be clearly learned, thereby improving network slice management efficiency.
