Morphology
choreography = choreograph (semi-transparent) = choreograph + y
Formed from 'choreograph' via a standard nominalization, but the computing sense is a metaphorical extension (dance → coordinated interaction) that may not be obvious to learners unfamiliar with the technical metaphor.
Etymology
Choreography comes from Greek parts choros 'dance' and -graphy 'writing'. Imagine many dancers each following a written plan so the show works without one leader; that's why in computing 'choreography' means different services follow a shared plan to coordinate without a central controller.
