Kenneth Knowles updated BEAM-8456:
----------------------------------
Status: Open (was: Triage Needed)
> BigQuery to Beam SQL timestamp has the wrong default: truncation makes the
> most sense
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: BEAM-8456
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-8456
> Project: Beam
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: dsl-sql
> Reporter: Kenneth Knowles
> Assignee: Kenneth Knowles
> Priority: Major
>
> Most of the time, a user reading a timestamp from BigQuery with
> higher-than-millisecond precision timestamps may not even realize that the
> data source created these high precision timestamps. They are probably
> timestamps on log entries generated by a system with higher precision.
> If they are using it with Beam SQL, which only supports millisecond
> precision, it makes sense to "just work" by default.
