known as a GUID (Globally Unique IDentifier), UUID is short
for Universal Unique IDentifier and is a 128-bit unique

System, OSF (Open Software Foundation), DCE
(Distributed Computing Environment), and
Microsoft
Windows, and is fully defined in RFC 4122.
Below is an example of what a UUID may look like.
