Some facts#
- Mongo Object Id is a string that identifies an entry in the mongo database.
- The mongo identifier is most often written as hexadecimal.
- Mongo Object Id consists of a total of 12 bytes which makes 24 characters in hexadecimal.
- The identifier is made of three parts:
- UNIX timestamp in seconds (4 bytes, 8 hex characters),
- arbitrary string (5 bytes, 10 hex characters),
- incrementing counter (3 bytes, 6 hex characters).
- UNIX timestamp in seconds (4 bytes, 8 hex characters),
- An arbitrary 5-byte part can contain any random value. In practice, the way it is generated depends on the implementation. For example, some implementations use MD5 hash of process id (PID) and hostname of machine, where the id is created.
- The counter also starts from random number and then is incremented for each locally created id.
- It's 3 bytes counter, which loops after 16777216 objects. The max value is 16777215 or 0xffffff in hex.
- The number 16777216 is the number of different values that can be stored in 3-byte counter (24 bits). It's equal to two raised to the twenty-fourth power (224).
- It's 3 bytes counter, which loops after 16777216 objects. The max value is 16777215 or 0xffffff in hex.
- There is no global mongo id database. The identifiers are generated locally.
- Generating a new mongo identifier does not guarantee that it will be unique. The use of the identifier is based on the fact that a collision is unlikely. We can generate over 18 quintillions (264 = ~18.4×1018) of unique identifiers every second.
