Generated UUID

Copied!

This tool generates Version 4 (Random) UUIDs compliant with RFC 4122 standard. You can safely use them for database keys, session IDs, or unique filenames.

What is UUID?

UUID (Universally Unique Identifier) is a 128-bit number used to uniquely identify objects in computer systems. Without the need for a central authority, the probability of a UUID generated anywhere colliding with one generated elsewhere is practically zero.

UUID v4 Features

The Version 4 UUIDs generated by this tool are based on completely random numbers. The probability of a collision in a 128-bit value set is so low that even if you generated 1 billion UUIDs every second, you might have to wait 100 years to see a collision. This makes it a perfect identifier for distributed systems.
