GUID Generator

What is a GUID?

GUID (Globally Unique Identifier) is Microsoft's implementation of UUID. GUIDs are essentially UUIDs with a specific format and are commonly used in Microsoft technologies and Windows applications.

GUIDs follow the same RFC 4122 standard as UUIDs but are often displayed with uppercase letters and are the preferred term in Microsoft ecosystems. They provide the same level of uniqueness and are used for identifying objects, records, and resources in distributed systems.
