Hi,

Unfortunately the simple GeoServer data model is not set up to do this sort
of data access across data stores or multiple hosts. However app-schema
allows you to set up a single feature type that is data mapped from multiple
other feature types (possibly coming from different databases/datastores).

Past that I am not sure. I know some databases support the notion of linked
tables. Perhaps you could try something that.
