TimeZone Implementation in DB or Application side?

  • Hello,

    We want to implement the timezone functionality through out the application.

    Here, the data fields will be saved in the DB in UTC date format and when you present those fields in the application they should be converted into the actual timezone.

    Here one more constraint should be taken... Day light Saving Time should be updated as per the current DST timings. (How to achieve DST from DB side)

    Here my question is, which is the better way to implement this functionality through out the application?

    from Database side or application side?

    Please Suggest 🙂

    Regards
