public final class SQLDataType
extends Object
```
The SQL standard data types, as described in Types.
These types are usually the ones that are referenced by generated source code. Most RDBMS have an almost 1:1 mapping between their vendor-specific types and the ones in this class (except Oracle). Some RDBMS also have extensions, e.g. for geospacial data types. See the dialect-specific data type classes for more information.

    The Types.TIME_WITH_TIMEZONE type.
    The behaviour of this data type is influenced by the JDBC driver and the database that is used. Some databases support actual time zones (as in ZonedDateTime), other databases support only offsets (as in OffsetDateTime). Some databases retain the actual time zone information that is stored and reproduce it with every fetch (e.g. SQLDialect.ORACLE), others use this type as a synonym for a timestamp in UTC (e.g. SQLDialect.POSTGRES), producing possibly a value in the current time zone of the database or the client. Please refer to your database for more information about the behaviour of this data type.
  - OFFSETDATETIME
```
public static final DataType<OffsetDateTime> OFFSETDATETIME
```
    The Types.TIMESTAMP_WITH_TIMEZONE type.

  - INSTANT
```
public static final DataType<Instant> INSTANT
```
    A Types.TIMESTAMP_WITH_TIMEZONE type that uses UTC as time zone.
    Neither JDBC, nor most SQL databases support the INSTANT data type, which is often the only kind of timestamp which can be expected to behave across all server and client time zone settings. This implementation is backed by the database vendor's TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE data type implementation, which may (e.g. Oracle) or may not (e.g. PostgreSQL) store the timestamp information. Irrespective of that storage, this type will always produce time zone agnostic instants in client code.
