What is Milliseconds and Milliseconds since Epoch?


A millisecond is a unit of time in the International System of Units equal to one thousandth of a second and to 1000 microseconds.

The time calculated since the "Unix Time" 1st January 1970 Time 00:00:00Z (UTC). The unix epoch is the number of milliseconds calculated since this "Unix Time". This value is independent of the time zone. This value is at most 8,640,000,000,000,000ms (100,000,000 days) from the Unix.


What is theMilliseconds?


theMilliseconds is a website that helps users decode the time, which is present in the database in the format of milliseconds (Epoch). We provide users with a platform where they can convert milliseconds to date-time and vice-versa. Not only this, we provide users to choose the timezone in which the millisecond's data is stored.

For example: If ABC has entered data from India, then the data will be stored in milliseconds as per the Indian Timezone. But if XYZ is a developer validating the same data from England (Prague), XYZ will find difficulty in converting the same milliseconds to the Indian timezone only. Because:

Milliseconds: 1674377411423 in India is in date-time: Sunday, 22-Jan-2023, 14:20:11 but in Prague it is Sunday, 22-Jan-2023, 09:50:11 (both in 24 hours format).
