Is there any 'Server's time zone' implementation inside Hive? For proper
implementation of TIMESTAMP data type, this is necessay to translate from
stored string type. I am focusing on MySQL 6.0 (with limited properties) for
TIMESTAMP.

Not yet. I think JVM take the environment variable TZ for that purpose for
all java-related functions.
In build-common.xml you should find the following:
env key=TZ value=US/Pacific/
This makes sure all current UDFs related to time/date are using the
US/Pacific time zone. (Note: all these UDFs
You could just use the
java.util.TimeZone
to get the current timezone.
