Touchpoints map symbolic names to Orchestrators and agents. Touchpoints are used to identify the Orchestrator or agent within an environment. A layer is provided between CA Process Automation and the network topology, allowing CA Process Automation operators to be configured without explicitly specifying host information.
The category configuration for an operator specifies the touchpoint on which to run the operator. A user configuring a CA Process Automation operator selects a name from a list of touchpoints that are configured to run the operators in the same category as the referenced operator. This indirection allows you to substitute hosts at runtime. Indirection also allows you to define multiple CA Process Automation environments in which the same touchpoints are mapped to different real hosts.
