======== ObjectId
=================

[](#objectid)

Unique Id generator inspired by mongodb object id

Overview
--------

[](#overview)

`ObjectId ` is a 12-byte `String` type, constructed using:

- a 4-byte value representing the seconds since the Unix epoch or some folks call it `unix timestamp`
- a 3-byte machine identifier `hostname`
- a 2-byte process id
- a 3-byte counter, starting with a random value.

In `RDMS`, records stored in a table require a unique id field that acts as a primary key. Because ObjectIds are small, most likely unique, and fast to generate you may want to use it in your next project
