Abstract
Described herein are systems and methods for generating integrated identifiers that may be combined with database sequence values to create a high probability of uniqueness that minimizes assigning duplicate identifiers to one or more databases. The integrated identifier may be based in part on several identifiers associated with a database. This may include a numeric identifier assigned to the database, a name assigned to the database, or any other database property that may be relatively unique. In one embodiment, the integrated identifier may be associated with a sequence value for a database. While the sequence value may be unique within the database, the integrated identifier may be unique to other database identifiers. When an existing database is cloned, a new integrated identifier may be generated from the cloned database. New records stored in the new database may use the new integrated identifier, while the cloned records will remain unedited.
