Jacek Lewandowski commented on CASSANDRA-17048:
-----------------------------------------------

[~benedict] I've pushed a commit which replaces ULID with UUID v1 and use 
{{UUIDGen}} class.

I thing to note - we cannot use Base64 because it is not lexicographically 
sortable and it may not work well in non-case sensitive file systems. Thus I 
used {{Long.toString}} with radix 36, which gives 25 characters long ID

> Replace the current sequential sstable generation identifier with ULID based.
> ULID is better because we do not need to scan the existing files to pick the 
> starting number as well as we can generate globally unique identifiers.
