@kevin-sumo @sumoanema , I've tagged you both for review/feedback.

The timestamp is the part of a log message that marks the time that an event occurred. During ingestion, we can detect the message timestamp, convert it to Unix epoch time (the number of milliseconds since midnight, January 1, 1970 UTC), and index it. The timestamp is parsed either using the default timestamp parsing settings, or a custom format that you specify.

Per @echlebek , it would be useful to include another column that describes the name of the format, e.g., ISO8601
