+
+### Trigger reconciliation on all events 
+
+TLDR; We provide an execution mode where `reconcile` method is called on every event from event source.
+
+The framework optimizes execution for generic use cases, which in almost all cases falls into two categories:
+
+1. The controller does not use finalizers; thus when the primary resource is deleted, all the managed secondary 
+   resources are cleaned up using the Kubernetes garbage collection mechanism, a.k.a., using owner references.
+2. When finalizers are used (using `Cleaner` interface), thus when controller requires some explicit cleanup logic, typically for external 
+   resources and when secondary resources are in different namespace than the primary resources (owner references
+   cannot be used in this case).
+
+Note that for example framework neither of those cases triggers the reconciler on the `Delete` event of the primary resource.
+When finalizer is used, it calls `cleaner(..)` method when resource is marked for deletion and our (not other) finalizer
+is present. When there is no finalizer, does not make sense to call the `reconciel(..)` method on a `Delete` event
+since all the cleanup will be done by the garbage collector. This way we spare reconciliation cycles.
+
+However, there are cases when controllers do not strictly follow those patterns, typically when:
+- Only some of the primary resources use finalizers, e.g., for some of the primary resources you need 
+  to create an external resource for others not.
+- You maintain some additional in memory caches (so not all the caches are encapsulated by an `EventSource`)
+  and you don't want to use finalizers. For those cases, you typically want to clean up your caches when the primary
+  resource is deleted.
+
+For such use cases you can set [`triggerReconcilerOnAllEvent`](https://github.com/operator-framework/java-operator-sdk/blob/main/operator-framework-core/src/main/java/io/javaoperatorsdk/operator/api/reconciler/ControllerConfiguration.java#L81)
+to `true`, as a result, `reconcile` method will be triggered on ALL events (so also `Delete` events), and you
+are free to optimize you reconciliation for the use cases above and possibly others. 
+
+In this mode:
+- even if the primary resource is already deleted from the Informer's cache, we will still pass the last known state
+  as the parameter for the reconciler. You can check if the resource is deleted using `Context.isPrimaryResourceDeleted()`.
+- The retry, rate limiting, re-schedule, filters mechanisms work normally. (The internal caches related to the resource 
+  are cleaned up only when there was a successful reconiliation after `Delete` event received for the primary resource
+  and reconciliation was not re-scheduled.
+- you cannot use `Cleaner` interface. The framework assumes you will explicitly manage the finalizers. To
+  add finalizer you can use [`PrimeUpdateAndCacheUtils`](https://github.com/operator-framework/java-operator-sdk/blob/main/operator-framework-core/src/main/java/io/javaoperatorsdk/operator/api/reconciler/PrimaryUpdateAndCacheUtils.java#L308).
+- you cannot use managed dependent resources since those manage the finalizers and other logic related to the normal
+  execution mode.
