Lefty Leverenz commented on HIVE-9298:
--------------------------------------
Doc note: timestamp.formats can be documented in the Timestamps section of the
Hive Data Types wikidoc. (At present we don't have a section on SerDe
properties in the wiki, but perhaps we should.)
* [Hive Data Types -- Timestamps |
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+Types#LanguageManualTypes-Timestamps]
* [SerDe Overview |

> Support reading alternate timestamp formats

> There are some users who want to be able to parse ISO-8601 timestamps, as
> well to set their own custom timestamp formats. We may be able to support
> this in LazySimpleSerDe through the use of a SerDe parameter to specify one
> or more alternative timestamp patterns to use to parse timestamp values from
> string.
> If we are doing this it might also be nice to work in support for HIVE-3844,
> to parse numeric strings as timestamp by treating the numeric value as millis
> since Unix epoch. This can be enabled through the SerDe params as well.
