[jira] [Created] (HIVE-14412) Add a timezone-aware timestamp

Rui Li created HIVE-14412:
-----------------------------

             Summary: Add a timezone-aware timestamp
                 Key: HIVE-14412
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-14412
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Sub-task
            Reporter: Rui Li
            Assignee: Rui Li


Java's Timestamp stores the time elapsed since the epoch. While it's by itself unambiguous, ambiguity comes when we parse a string into timestamp, or convert a timestamp to string, causing problems like HIVE-14305.
To solve the issue, I think we should make timestamp aware of timezone.
