GUIDs are unique identifiers for Midgard objects. The GUID is a 32 character string to ensure uniqueness of resource in 128-bit space. It allows for about 3*10^39 different objects (exact value is 340282366920938463463374607431768211456).

Unlike IDs, GUIDs don't change between databases and thus are needed to make an application Repligard-safe.

This documentation is very much a work in progress, and pull requests are welcome!
