Hey, I am developing a session management system using Cassandra and need to generate unique sessionIDs (cassandra columnfamily keys). Does anyone know of an elegant/simple way to accomplish this? I am not sure about using time based uuids on the client as there a chance that multiple clients could generate the same ID. I've heard suggestions of using zookeeper as a source for the IDs, but was just hoping that there might be something simpler for my purposes.
Thanks, -Kal
