This package provides support for using Amazon SimpleDB with version 3 of the
AWS SDK for PHP. It depends on the AWS SDK for PHP v3 and allows users to
construct SimpleDb clients as they would any other v3 service:
```php
<?php

$sdb = new \Aws\SimpleDb\SimpleDbClient([
    'region' => 'us-east-1',
    'version' => 'latest',
]);

$domains = $sdb->listDomains();
```
