SHOW {DATABASES | SCHEMAS} [LIKE 'pattern']
SHOW DATABASES lists the databases on the
MySQL server host. SHOW SCHEMAS is a
synonym for SHOW DATABASES.
You see only those databases for which you have some kind of
privilege, unless you have the global SHOW
DATABASES privilege. You can also get this list
using the mysqlshow command.
If the server was started with the
--skip-show-database option, you cannot use
this statement at all unless you have the SHOW
DATABASES privilege.
SHOW SCHEMAS can also be used.
