@aklearn UUIDs are implicitly unique and obfuscate sequential ids, which can be useful for preventing bad actors from doing things they shouldn't.

Why do Queues use UUID?
Main purpose of this question is to understand the benefits of UUIDs. I have read articles on why these are beneficial in an application which is tracking order IDs for an ecommerce application. I don't understand the benefit Laravel is getting from using it in Queues.
In general... when is this a good tool? If you can link this to Queues, it would be great.

@fylzero Why would Laravel need to use this in Queues? I understand the usage of this in ecommerce order IDs.

My guess is that it will work on any driver. Some drivers does not have incrementing ids
