Torgeir Veimo commented on OAK-6419:
------------------------------------
Would it be possible to have someone with intimate knowledge of the clustering
setup provide an example method implemented with the clusterable api?
> unique id generator

> Key: OAK-6419
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-6419
> Project: Jackrabbit Oak
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Torgeir Veimo
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: counters, locking, sequence
>
> It would be great to have a way to safely generate unique id's for node
> names, with oak configured in a cluster configuration.
> This is useful for creating unique slug names for documents, and ensuring
> unique names for node siblings, or node names repository wide.
> It could be implemented as a sequence generator, or similar to how mongodb
> generates object ids; https://docs.mongodb.org/manual/reference/object-id/.
> With the older jackrabbit implementation it is possible to have a sequence
> guaranteed to provide unique id's, using enforceable locks. With oak theres
> no such guarantee when used in a clustered configuration.
