How to get MySQL Database Size

While carrying out Performance Tests for WSO2 Governance Registry, I had to measure(calculate) MySQL database size. So here I am posting the query which I used to measure the MySQL database size, hoping this could be useful to someone. SELECT table_schema "Database Name", Round(Sum(data_length + index_length) / 1024 / 1024, 3) "Database Size in MB" FROM   information_schema.tables  GROUP  BY table_schema; Once this query is executed you can view the database size in formation like this:: mysql> SELECT table_schema "Database Name", Round(Sum(data_length + index_length) / 1024 / 1024, 3) "Database Size in MB" FROM   information_schema.tables  GROUP  BY table_schema; +--------------------+---------------------+ | Database Name      | Database Size in MB | +--------------------+---------------------+ | db11                       |               1.834 | | db12                       |               1.834 | +--------------------+-
