UUID v4 Generator

Click the button to generate a UUID

Why should you use uuid v4?

UUIDs are globally unique, ensuring that identifiers do not clash across different databases, servers, or microservices.
Incremental IDs are predictable and can be exploited (e.g., scraping user profiles by iterating through IDs).
UUIDs are harder to guess, providing an extra layer of security.
UUIDs make it difficult to sequentially access data.
When combining data from multiple sources (e.g., different databases or microservices), UUIDs prevent ID conflicts.
UUIDs can be created on the client side without requiring a round trip to the database, improving performance.
