How Does Einstein Relate to SOA?
There's no silver bullet that I'm aware of to magically adjust your service designs until they're optimal

It takes a touch of genius - and a lot of courage - to move in the opposite direction."

This month we're focusing on two subjects that actually tie in together much more than most people actually anticipate - SOA Testing and Service Design. I'll get to how they tie together in a moment, but let's see how Einstein relates to SOA first.
