About UUID Version 3
What is UUID v3?
UUID version 3 generates name-based UUIDs using MD5 hashing. It takes a namespace identifier and a name as input to create a consistent UUID. This means the same namespace and name will always generate the same UUID, making it perfect for scenarios requiring deterministic IDs.
Advantages of UUID v3
DeterministicSame inputs always generate the same UUID
Name-BasedUses meaningful names for generation
MD5 HashingFast and efficient hash generation
Namespace SupportOrganizes UUIDs by context or domain
