What is the difference between uuid and guid?

Answer Posted / Osh Gupta

Universally unique identifier (uuid) and globally unique identifier (guid) are similar in purpose, which is to generate a unique identifier that can be used across different systems. However, the main difference lies in their implementation. GUID was initially developed by Microsoft for Windows operating system and uses 128-bit representation, while UUID was defined by the Open Software Foundation and has a slightly different 128-bit format.
