Then team approached me to write a quick query to know the table name and its size. The query to calculate size of table in given database is as follows: SELECT t.NAME AS TableName ,s.NAME AS SchemaName ,p.rows AS RowCounts ,SUM(a.total_pages) * 8 AS TotalSpaceKB ,SUM(a.used_pages) * 8 AS UsedSpaceKB ,(SUM(a.total_pages) - SUM(a.used_pages)) * 8 AS UnusedSpaceKB FROM sys.tables t INNER JOIN sys.indexes i ON t.OBJECT_ID = i.object_id INNER JOIN sys.partitions p ON i.object_id = p.OBJECT_ID AND i.index_id = p.index_id INNER JOIN sys.allocation_units a ON p.partition_id = a.container_id LEFT JOIN sys.schemas s ON t.schema_id = s.schema_id WHERE t.NAME NOT LIKE 'dt%' AND t.is_ms_shipped = 0 AND i.OBJECT_ID > 255 GROUP BY t.NAME ,s.NAME ,p.Rows ORDER BY t.NAME
