ECE architecture: link services to host roles and fix Controller→Coordinator - #8121
Merged
Conversation
…dinator The architecture page described ZooKeeper, Director, Constructor, Proxies, and Allocators without indicating which ECE host role runs each service, leaving readers unable to connect service descriptions to the role model. - Add inline role references to each control plane service, Proxies, and Allocators sections pointing to the assign-roles-to-hosts page. - Fix incorrect "Controller" label in the service containers table; the actual ECE host role is "coordinator". - Expand the coordinator role description in assign-roles-to-hosts to list the services it runs (Constructor, Admin Console, Cloud UI) and link back to the architecture page.

The coordinator role is displayed as "Controller" in the Cloud UI, but the internal identifier used in API calls and role tokens remains coordinator. Add a note to assign-roles-to-hosts explaining this discrepancy, and add a clarifying sentence to the service containers table intro in ece-architecture.

…le refs Show both the Cloud UI name (Controller) and the API identifier (coordinator) in the service containers table so both UI users and API/token users can recognize the role. Also add "shown as Controller in the Cloud UI" to the Constructor and Cloud UI/API service descriptions. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Summary
The ECE architecture page described each service (ZooKeeper, Director, Constructor, Proxies, Allocators) without mentioning which host role runs it, leaving a gap between the architecture overview and the role model explained in the assign-roles-to-hosts page.
