AWS X-Ray does not vend an SDK for PHP, but we do vend the AWS Distro for OpenTelemetry in PHP. You can use OpenTelemetry PHP to instrument libraries that are supported in OpenTelemetry PHP (including AWS SDK) and/or manually create spans as necessary and export traces to AWS X-Ray.

The ADOT documentation contains detailed instructions on getting started and setting up all the components to send trace data to the AWS X-Ray backend. We also provide a sample app that can be used to get started with using ADOT PHP.
