when a MySQL table was last updated?

you can use the information_schema database to tell you when another table was updated
SELECT UPDATE_TIME
FROM information_schema.tables
WHERE TABLE_SCHEMA = 'YOUR_DBNAME'
AND TABLE_NAME = 'YOUR_TABLENAME'
If you don't have information_schema database using this query.
show table status from YOUR_DBNAME like 'YOUR_TABLENAME'
This query shows all information of table.the column 'update_time' is last update time.
