---------------------------------------

             Summary: sql time stamps do not respect time zones
                 Key: SPARK-14057
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-14057
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: SQL
    Affects Versions: 1.6.0
            Reporter: Andrew Davidson
            Priority: Minor


we have time stamp data. The time stamp data is UTC how ever when we load the data into spark data frames, the system assume the time stamps are in the local time zone. This causes problems for our data scientists. Often they pull data from our data center into their local macs. The data centers run UTC. There computers are typically in PST or EST.

It is possible to hack around this problem

This cause a lot of errors in their analysis
