Morphology
orchestrator = orchestrate (semi-transparent) = orchestrate + or
Formally derived from 'orchestrate' + '-or', but the technical computing sense is a specialized metaphorical extension that may be unfamiliar to non-technical learners.
Etymology
The word orchestrator uses the same parts orchestra and -or, keeping the idea of arranging many parts, so a helpful image is a conductor leading instruments. That's why in computing an orchestrator is software that coordinates services, starts extra parts when needed, and keeps everything working together.
