What is a UUID v4?
A Universally Unique Identifier (UUID) v4 is a 128-bit number used to uniquely identify information in computer systems. Version 4 is generated using random or pseudo-random numbers.
What are the odds of a collision?
The probability of two UUID v4s being the same is infinitesimally small. Even if you generated 1 billion UUIDs every second for 100 years, the probability of creating a duplicate would be approximately 50%.
What is a ULID and when should I use one?
A ULID (Universally Unique Lexicographically Sortable Identifier) is a 26-character identifier that starts with a 48-bit millisecond timestamp followed by 80 bits of randomness, encoded in Crockford base32. Because IDs generated later sort after earlier ones, ULIDs make excellent database keys where insert order matters — unlike UUID v4s, which index in random order.
