To find the size of databases using SQL command, run the following SQL in MySQL prompt.
SELECT table_schema AS "Database", ROUND(SUM(data_length + index_length) / 1024 / 1024, 2) AS "Size (MB)" FROM information_schema.TABLES GROUP BY table_schema;
Example
FInd disk usage by tables
To find disk usage by tables in database, run

In the above SQL, replace DB_NAME_HERE with the actual name of the database.
