The Capture Agent is a device you install in your recording venue (e.g: a classroom), while the Core Server is the something that is installed behind the scenes. Your users will access a core, and do not normally have access to the capture agent at all. For instance, I have five classrooms each of which has a capture agent installed in it. These capture agents record and send their captures to a central core server cluster. This cluster can be a single machine, however Matterhorn can be a bit resource hungry so most installations split this across multiple machines. In my case, my core server is a cluster of four machines: an admin node, two worker nodes, and an 'engage' node. Students accessing their recordings do so from this engage node, and do not have access to any of the other machines.
