About UUID v4

UUID version 4 identifiers are generated using random or pseudo-random numbers. They contain 122 bits of randomness, making collisions astronomically unlikely. UUIDs are widely used in distributed systems where unique identifiers must be generated independently without coordination.

  • 128-bit identifier represented as 32 hexadecimal digits
  • Version 4 uses cryptographically secure random data
  • Probability of collision: 1 in 2^122 (approximately 5.3 x 10^36)
  • Compliant with RFC 4122 specification
  • Generated entirely client-side using Web Crypto API
