Abstract

A computer implemented method implemented with a processor for assigning a unique identifier for a data item initially deployed at a cluster of a networked environment that includes determining a unique cluster identifier for the cluster of the networked environment, atomically modifying a local counter value at the cluster of the networked environment and appending the unique cluster identifier to the atomically modified local counter value at the cluster of the networked environment to form a unique ID for the data item.
