UUID Version Information

Version 1 (Timestamp-based): Uses MAC address and timestamp. Predictable but sortable. Leaks network identity.
Version 2 (DCE Security): Similar to v1 but with embedded POSIX UID/GID. Rarely used in practice.
Version 3 (Namespace MD5): Uses MD5 hash of namespace UUID and name. Deterministic output for same input.
Version 4 (Random): Uses cryptographically secure random numbers. Most commonly used version. 122 bits of randomness.
Version 5 (Namespace SHA1): Uses SHA-1 hash of namespace UUID and name. Deterministic, preferred over v3.
Version 6 (Reordered Timestamp): Like v1 but with reordered timestamp for better sorting. Doesn't leak MAC address.
Version 7 (Timestamp-ordered): Uses Unix timestamp for natural sorting. Newest standard (RFC 9562). Recommended for databases.
