FAQ

What is a UUID?
+

A UUID (Universally Unique Identifier) is a 128-bit value used to uniquely identify information in computer systems. It is designed to be globally unique without requiring central coordination.

What is the difference between UUID versions?
+
  • UUID v1 – generated using timestamp and node information.
  • UUID v4 – generated using random numbers.
  • UUID v6 – optimized timestamp-based UUID for database ordering.
  • UUID v7 – modern timestamp-based UUID using Unix time.
Are UUIDs really unique?
+

UUIDs are designed to be practically unique. With 128 bits of data, the probability of generating the same UUID twice is extremely small.
