Sergio Peña commented on HIVE-14412:
------------------------------------

I don't know if we support spaces on type names, but I think we should try to 
support the standard type as that is something we have been trying to do in 
Hive (being more standard). 
How do others DB systems use the syntax for this?

> Java's Timestamp stores the time elapsed since the epoch. While it's by 
> itself unambiguous, ambiguity comes when we parse a string into timestamp, or 
> convert a timestamp to string, causing problems like HIVE-14305.
> To solve the issue, I think we should make timestamp aware of timezone.
