Benedict Elliott Smith commented on CASSANDRA-17048:
----------------------------------------------------
I think human readable timestamps are actually pretty illegible when they are
very long, which they probably would be here. But perhaps this would be better.
We could perhaps go for a human readable timestamp down to the seconds
granularity, and base32/36 for the remainder? We could perhaps even decompose
the date and intra-day timestamp, as this would make human parsing much easier.

> 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.
