What is Unix Timestamp?

Unix timestamp, also known as Epoch time, is a system for tracking time in computing. It represents the number of seconds that have elapsed since January 1, 1970  00:00:00 UTC (Coordinated Universal Time). The Unix timestamp is widely used in computing systems to record and synchronize time-related events.

What is UTC?

UTC, or Coordinated Universal Time, serves as the global standard for regulating clocks and time. Its goal is to establish a uniform time standard worldwide, enabling consistent timekeeping across different regions.  UTC time is precisely aligned  with GMT (Greenwich Mean Time) and remains unaffected by daylight saving time adjustments or changes in local time zones.  Time in UTC is represented in a 24-hour format, including hours, minutes, and seconds.  

For example,  the local date and time  “2023-05-11 5:30 PM EDT” can be converted to UTC  as “2023-05-11T21:30:00Z.” This format is in accordance with the ISO 8601 standard for representing dates and times
