-## Sequence Diagram
+## CRD design
 
-![Sequence Diagram](../images/flow.png)
+Currently `apisix-ingress-controller` CRDs consist of 3 parts: 
ApisixRoute/ApisixService/ApisixUpstream. The design follows the following 
ideas.
+
+1. The most important part of the gateway is the routing part, which is used 
to define the distribution rules of the gateway traffics.
+2. In order to facilitate understanding and configuration, the design 
structure of `ApisixRoute` is basically similar to Kubernetes Ingress.
+3. In the design of annotation, the structure of Kubernetes Ingress is used 
for reference, but the internal implementation is based on the plug-in of 
Apache APISIX.
+4. Both `ApisixRoute` and `ApisixService` can be bound to plug-ins, which is 
consistent with Apache APISIX.
+5. In the simplest case, you only need to define `ApisixRoute`, and the 
Ingress controller will automatically add `ApisixService` and `ApisixUpstream`.
+6. `ApisixService`, like Apache APISIX service, is a grouping of routes, which 
can simplify the configuration complexity of the same plug-in.
+7. `ApisixUpstream` can define some details on Apache APISIX upstream, such as 
load balancing/health check, etc.
+
+## Monitoring CRDs
+
+`apisix-ingress-controller` is responsible for interacting with the Kubernetes 
Apiserver, applying for accessible resource permissions (RBAC), monitoring 
changes, and implementing object conversion within the Ingress controller, 
comparing the changes, and then synchronizing to Apache APISIX.

+### Timing diagram

+
+### Conversion structure
+
+`apisix-ingress-controller` provides external configuration methods for CRDs. 
It is aimed at operators such as daily operation and maintenance, who often 
need to process a large number of routes in batches, hoping to handle all 
related services in the same configuration file, and at the same time have 
convenient and understandable management capabilities. Apache APISIX is 
designed from the perspective of the gateway, and all routes are independent. 
This leads to obvious differences in the data structure between the two. One 
focuses on batch definition, while the other is discrete implementation.
+
+Taking into account the usage habits of different groups of people, the data 
structure of CRDs draws on the data structure of Kubernetes Ingress, and is 
basically the same in shape.
+
+A simple comparison is as follows, they have different definitions:

Review comment:
       Done, I change the opacity of backgrounds, with little diff color for 
easy to distinguish.
