Carlos Balduz commented on SPARK-1153:
--------------------------------------

I am currently using zipWithUniqueId() to get a VertexID for my data, but that 
means that after getting the VertexIDs, I have to go to the edges data to look 
for each of those strings and assign the Id I got from the previous step. 

I agree it would be nice to be able to choose a different tipe of ID, leaving 
the user to decide whether he prefers performance or usability.

> Generalize VertexId in GraphX so that UUIDs can be used as vertex IDs.

> Currently, {{VertexId}} is a type-synonym for {{Long}}. I would like to be 
> able to use {{UUID}} as the vertex ID type because the data I want to process 
> with GraphX uses that type for its primay-keys. Others might have a different 
> type for their primary-keys. Generalizing {{VertexId}} (with a type class) 
> will help in such cases.
