Hi,

  I have gone through the archive and realized that the two safe options
for implementing database (Oracle) base primary key generation are

  1. Singleton Entity Bean (BMP)
  2. Stateless Session Bean

I am going to use Oracle Sequence to generate the primary keys.

Questions :

 1. Which one is better - using a singleton entity bean (BMP) or
    stateless session bean in terms of performance ?

 2. What are the tradeoffs of using James Cook's UUID generation bean
    versus a sequence in Oracle database.

    - UUID option generates large ids
    - Using Oracle Sequence requires accessing the database
    - How much do large ids affect an application that does a lot of
      complex queries ?


Thanks for your help and suggestions.

Mihir
