How it works inside
UUID v4 does not contain a timestamp and is not time-sortable.
Uniqueness is probabilistic rather than checked against a global database.
Questions and answers
Is a UUID guaranteed to be unique?
There is no absolute global guarantee, but the UUID v4 space makes a random collision extremely unlikely.
How does UUID differ from ULID?
UUID v4 is random, while ULID includes time and sorts lexicographically.
