+### How to use the SkyWalking Chart?
+
+Two ways:
+- deploy SkyWalking and Elasticsearch (default)
+- only deploy SkyWalking ,and use existing Elasticsearch
+
+#### Deploy SkyWalking and Elasticsearch (default)
+
+```shell script
+$ cd chart
+
+$ helm add stable https://kubernetes-charts.storage.googleapis.com/
+
+$ helm dep up 
+
+$ helm install <release_name> skywalking -n <namespace>
+```
+
+#### Only deploy SkyWalking ,and use existing Elasticsearch
+
+If not want to deploy a new elasticsearch cluster, this way can be solved.
+
+Only need to close the elasticsearch deployed by chart default and configure the existing elasticsearch connection method.
+
+```shell script
+$ cd chart
+
+$ helm add stable https://kubernetes-charts.storage.googleapis.com/
+
+$ helm dep up 
+
+$ helm install <release_name> skywalking -n <namespace> \
+        --set elasticsearch.enabled=false \
+        --set elasticsearch.config.host=<es_host> \
+        --set elasticsearch.config.port.http=<es_port>
+```
