I live in the UK and it looks like the data is in UK time, since the latest data shows the current time according to the timesettings of my PC. So I guess that the data on the server has a timestamp and when I backfill it will apply some correction to match the data with the current time on my PC. Am I correct?
But of course there are things like daylight saving time that can mess up things. For example, if the stream originates from the USA and the timestamp includes American DST, then I have to take that into account since the USA switches to and from DST on different dates than the UK. So the time on the data may not represent the correct UK time all the time. Am I correct?
I hope my question is clear and that you can clarify how time is handled when doing a backfill.
