Hi, we are probably dead by then, but I wonder what is the plan beyond 2106?
As you may know, ObjectId will overflow on February 7, 2106; there are a couple of ways forward then.
- extend ObjectId by 1 byte
- do nothing, using the current specification, and let it overflow into 1970.
These impact how we design the schema now, as we can either:
- simply store ObjectId if the plan is to extend the timestamp portion of ObjectId
- store ObjectId and time as separate fields, and never use ObjectId as time
What do you say?
P.S. BTW, the specification is currently incorrect; the ObjectId will overflow in Feb, not in Jan.
