currentTimeMillis (Function)

Returns the current timestamp of stream processor application in milliseconds.

Syntax​

<LONG> currentTimeMillis()

Query Parameters​

None

Example 1​

@info(name = 'query1')
INSERT INTO barStream
SELECT symbol AS name, currentTimeMillis() AS eventTimestamp
FROM fooStream;

This query selects records from the fooStream and transforms the data by renaming the symbol field to name and adding a new field called eventTimestamp with the value of the current time in milliseconds using the currentTimeMillis() function. The resulting transformed data is then inserted into the barStream.

Essentially, this query processes records in the fooStream and creates new records in the barStream with the name and eventTimestamp fields, where eventTimestamp represents the current time in milliseconds.
