CURRENT_TIMESTAMP in milliseconds

Question

Is there any way to get milliseconds out of a timestamp in MySql or PostgreSql (or others just out of curiosity)?

SELECT CURRENT_TI         


        

Answer 1

For MySQL (5.6+) you can do this:

SELECT ROUND(UNIX_TIMESTAMP(CURTIME(4)) * 1000)

Which will return (e.g.):

1420998416685 --milliseconds
