AWS X-Ray is an application performance monitoring service from Amazon Web Services that traces and analyzes requests across distributed applications and AWS services.

It provides end-to-end tracing by collecting segments and grouping them into traces, generates a service map that visualizes dependencies and latency between components, and supports sampling to control data volume while maintaining visibility into performance issues.
