Description
We want all requests that throw an exception to be logged in Xray. However, it seems that Xray requires/strongly encourages you to set a sampling rate, meaning that not all error requests will necessarily get logged. Is Xray the right tool for logging all errors?

Research direction
The issue names no repository files, tests, or entry points. Start by checking the project's existing documentation and AWS X-Ray guidance for sampling and error capture, then document whether all exception requests can be logged and whether X-Ray is appropriate for that use case.
