java.lang.Object

org.apache.pulsar.broker.service.DistributedIdGenerator

public class DistributedIdGenerator
extends Object

Generate unique ids across multiple nodes.

Each node has an instance of this class and uses the same z-node. At startup each node gets assigned a unique id, using ZK sequential nodes.

After that, each node can just use a local counter and combine, the application prefix, its own instance id and with the counter incremental value to obtain a globally unique id.
