github.com/Ropes/stonecutters (go): This package looks deep within a goroutine's soul and assigns it a name based on the order in which it joined.  Designed to address the container namespace pollution of metric collection systems. Carbon https://github.com/graphite-project/carbon in particular, where namespace pollution kills Graphite's performance.)  Distributed processes which need to share names but for identification and maintain uniqueness. This works but having a shared static set of names which are claimed using etcd(v3) as the distributed lock. Each process iterates over the ordered list, and claim the first name which isn't regestered/claimed in etcd.  Provided static names are the top 100 highest mountains in North America, ordered by decending peak elevation. However any list of identifiers can be passed into stonecutters.Join(...)  Request an atomic ID from etcdv3:
