I was also planning for this aproach and then I read this document eclipsesource.com/blogs/2012/09/04/… And as per this source hashCode doesnt have to be unique for every object. That's where I had to lookout for other options.

@RajaAnbazhagan the chances of two hashCode()s for two Connections that are open at the same time being the same is next to zero. If you want to go overboard and make it 100% unique, do something like hashCode() + '-' + System.nanoTime(). I am able to use hashCode() as a unique id just fine when doing enterprise scale jdbc debugging in logs

Finally decided to go with the hexString of hashcode approach.
