What is a KSUID?

KSUID is for K-Sortable Unique IDentifier. It's a way to generate globally unique IDs similar to RFC 4122 UUIDs, but contain a time component so they can be "roughly" sorted by time of creation. The remainder of the KSUID is randomly generated bytes.

Why use KSUID?

Sortable by Timestamp
128-bits of pseudorandom data (vs 122-bits from RFC 4122 UUIDv4)
Lexographically Sortable, Portable Representations
