1.What is the difference between Event properties key and chainid?

Almost all of the events i received have the same key and chain id.What is the use of ChainId property.

2.The property key is of data type Integer.Is it capable of
holding large values.(<code>(java)-2147483648 to
</code><code>2147483647</code>).

The Event's key property is increasing for every session
login,logout.If this continues it will soon reach 2147483647.Then what
will be the Key value for the next event?

Thanks.
