Should i install controller after installation of enterprises Console

Should i install controller 4.3.8 after installation of 4.4.0 Enterprise console.
What is difference between both console and controller.

From the AppDynamics documentation:

The AppDynamics Enterprise Console automates the task of installing and administering the Controller and Events Service. Before installing these components, you need to install the Enterprise Console, as described on this page.

Controller is the main component that is like the processing unit of all the data that is sent to it by agents.

Console can be considered as an admin tool to manage controller and events services.
