2011 Ss my :What controls the spark plug firing?

Prior to the ignition coils. Is there a distributor of some sort? And where is it?
Or is it computerized?

Distributors are long gone, completely electronic. There are several components that control spark in modern cars such as crank sensor, cam sensor, ECM, to name a few.
