Option to split date and time into separate columns

SAP recommends using compression on column store databases to conserve RAM and disk space resources (https://blogs.sap.com/2016/08/12/how-and-why-to-do-compression-of-column-store-tables-in-sap-hana/). Since date+time values are typically unique and compression in SAP HANA is column-based, compression of timeseries data like the data published by the Integrator is more effective if date and time are in separate columns as opposed to a single time column containing both date and time.

    We have decided to decline this item for now, as we are focused on high priority work in other areas of the PI System. However, ensuring our users can leverage their operational data across a variety of tools and platforms is a challenging, but vital aspect of making sure your data is valuable and accessible, and your feedback is instrumental in helping us understand how to shape these efforts. Thank you for sharing!
