What is Unix Timestamp and Why Use It?
Unix Timestamp is the number of seconds (or milliseconds) since January 1, 1970 00:00:00 UTC (Unix epoch) to the present time. This is the most commonly used time representation in computer systems, because it's a simple number that's easy to store, transmit, and calculate.
Timestamp Format Explanation:
- •Second-level Timestamp:10-digit number, precise to seconds, range to 2038 (32-bit systems)
- •Millisecond-level Timestamp:13-digit number, precise to milliseconds, JavaScript default format
- •Microsecond-level Timestamp:16-digit number, high-precision application scenarios
Application Scenarios:
Database time fields, log recording, cache expiration time, API time parameters, session management, scheduled tasks, data synchronization, version control, etc. Unix Timestamp is cross-platform, cross-language, cross-timezone, and is the most universal time representation standard.
