So, for example below is a timestamp generated by my Cassandra instance. What does the +0000 mean?

2015-06-26 17:02:04+0000

Thanks

It's the timezone offset. +0000 means UTC.

    Specifically, the offset is in the form `[+-]HHMM` (hours & minutes without intervening colon). – jwodder Jun 30 '15 at 21:22

It's the ISO time format. Pretty common across many programming stuff.
Here's the wikipedia
