The official AWS SDK for PHP (version 3), providing idiomatic PHP client APIs for over 400 Amazon Web Services including S3, DynamoDB, EC2, and Glacier. It handles credential management, retries, serialization, pagination, waiters, and asynchronous requests via promises, and is extensible through handlers and middleware.

Use cases

• upload files to s3 from php
• use dynamodb in a php application
• call aws services from php code
• manage aws credentials in php
• poll aws resources until ready
• query paginated aws api results in php

When to choose

• you are building a PHP application that integrates with AWS services
• you need official, maintained clients covering the full AWS service catalog
• you want built-in retries, pagination, waiters, and async promises
• you need middleware/handler extensibility for AWS API calls

When to avoid

• your project is not in PHP
• you only target a non-AWS cloud provider
• you need a lightweight client for a single service and want to avoid the SDK's footprint (though Composer can strip unused services)
