InfluxDB
Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
One simple workaround could be to use something like UUID version 7[0], using just the first part that encodes the time, and dropping the rest.

I use shortuuid[0] for that stuff, which also omits the capital letter I, and has some other niceties (I wrote the library). It works really well, and I like how small the IDs are.
