Hi there,

I am new to ece and wondering about the roles in ece.  
In the documentation it is spoken about the coordinator role.  
But in the overview:  
[Service-oriented architecture | Elastic Cloud Enterprise Reference [3.5] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/cloud-enterprise/current/ece-architecture.html)  
the coordinator is not mentioned - or is it the same as the constructor?  
Thanks!
