UUID: Universally Unique Identifiers Explained
A UUID (Universally Unique Identifier) is a 128-bit number used to uniquely identify information in computer systems. UUIDs are standardized by the Open Software Foundation (OSF) and used across many systems for various purposes, from database keys to identifying components in distributed systems.
What Is a UUID?
A UUID is designed to be unique, meaning no two UUIDs generated should ever be the same. UUIDs are often used in software development for tasks like:
- Assigning unique IDs to records in a database
- Ensuring objects in distributed systems have unique identifiers
- Creating session tokens for secure web applications
UUIDs can be generated in multiple ways, with different versions optimized for specific use cases.
