How to deal with date and time in PostgreSQL?

  • use datetime datatype without timezone (datetime with timezone is using offset, which doesn't work well with DST)
  • store datetime in UTC
  • add timezone information separately, use Full time zone name (human friendly)
  • use ISO 8601 format, which is human friendly to read and supported by every library
