TIME WITH TIME ZONE: the same as TIME, but including details about the time zone in question. TIMESTAMP : This is a DATE and a TIME put together in one variable (e.g. 2011-05-03 15:51:36.123456 ). TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE : the same as TIMESTAMP , but including details about the time zone in question.
A time interval is the intervening time between two time points. The amount of intervening time is expressed by a duration (as described in the previous section). The two time points (start and end) are expressed by either a combined date and time representation or just a date representation. There are four ways to express a time interval:
SQL was initially developed at IBM by Donald D. Chamberlin and Raymond F. Boyce after learning about the relational model from Edgar F. Codd [12] in the early 1970s. [13] This version, initially called SEQUEL (Structured English Query Language), was designed to manipulate and retrieve data stored in IBM's original quasirelational database management system, System R, which a group at IBM San ...
Thurs 31.12.2009 13:35 — same time as the above, different format with little-endian date and big-endian 24-hour clock; 2005-10-30 T 10:45 UTC — ISO 8601 international order with time zone) 2007-11-09 T 11:20 UTC — same format as the above, hence easy to compare and perform alphanumeric sorting; Sat Jul 23 02:16:57 2005
Versions 9, [10] [11] 10g and 11g implement the time-sliced queries in what they call Flashback Queries, using the alternative syntax AS OF TIMESTAMP. [12] Notably both of Oracle's implementations depend on the database's rollback segment and so only allow temporal queries against recent changes which are still being retained for backup.
GPS dates are expressed as a week number and a day-of-week number, with the week number initially using a ten-bit value and modernised GPS navigation messages using a 13-bit field. Ten-bit systems would roll over every 1024 weeks (about 19.6 years) after Sunday 6 January 1980 (the GPS epoch ), and 13-bit systems roll over every 8192 weeks.
These two additional columns define a period of time of "validity" of the data associated with a specified entity (the entity of the primary key), or in other words, it stores how the data were in the period of time between the StartDate (included) and EndDate (not included).
A Unix time number is easily converted back into a UTC time by taking the quotient and modulus of the Unix time number, modulo 86 400. The quotient is the number of days since the epoch, and the modulus is the number of seconds since midnight UTC on that day.
