> When reading through the docs I noticed that unix_timestamp() doesn't explicitly say what unit it returns (I believe it is seconds). I saw this create some confusion for a user: http://community.cloudera.com/t5/Interactive-Short-cycle-SQL/Get-timestamp-in-milliseconds-in-Impala/m-p/61214#M3755?eid=1&aid=1
> See https://impala.incubator.apache.org/docs/build/html/topics/impala_datetime_functions.html
> {quote} Purpose: Returns an integer value representing the current date and time as a delta from the Unix epoch, or converts from a specified date and time value represented as a TIMESTAMP or STRING. {quote}
