Sylvain Lebresne commented on CASSANDRA-7536:
---------------------------------------------
A priori, I'm not convinced nanosecond resolution times are common enough in
the wild that it's worth creeping up the CQL types.
> High resolution types for timestamp and time
> --------------------------------------------

> Key: CASSANDRA-7536
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-7536
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Robert Stupp
> Priority: Minor
>
> CASSANDRA-7523 adds support for _date_ and _time_ data types using the same
> precision as current _timestamp_ type.
> This ticket is about to add high resolution (nanosecond precision) types for
> timestamp and time. It should be easy to use with Joda API and Java 8
> {{java.time}} API.
> Additionally support for time zone / offset (might need be handled
> differently) could be introduced using new time and timestamp types.
> Idea for binary serialization format (from java.time API):
> {{(int)year (short)month (short)day (byte)hour (byte)minute (byte)second
> (int)nano (int)offsetInSeconds}}
> Additional thinking is required to make even the time zone / offset types
> comparable (even for different TZ offsets) - so these might not be covered by
> this ticket.
