UUID performance as primary key

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Guys,

I am interested in finding out the pros/cons of using UUID as a primary key field. My requirement states that UUID would be perfect in my case as I will be having many small databases which will link up to a global database using the UUID. Hence, the need for a unique key across all databases. It would be extremely helpful if someone could help me figure this out, as it is critical for my project.

Thanks in advance,
