Type-safe, K-sortable, globally unique identifier inspired by Stripe IDs
The authors have created a specialisation for Postgres that leverages a custom type which is a tuple of type and uuidv7: https://github.com/jetpack-io/typeid-sql/blob/main/sql/typei...
This is more optimal for Postgres while making it slightly more difficult to interop between the db and the language (db driver needs to handle custom types, and you need to inject a custom type converter).
And while there are hacks you can do to make storing uuid-alikes as strings less terrible for db engines, if you want the best performance and smallest space consumption (compressed or not) make sure to use native ID types or convert to BINARY/numeric types.
