If your looking to have users connect to one database & see the entire enterprise worth of databases then Postgres is not what you want. Have damanagement get out their wallet & buy Oracle instead. It's made to purpose.

Is possible, throught PostgreSQL, to implement horizontal partition, this is, to fragment tables horizontally? For example, can I have a Data Base with 1 table, where it is horizontally fragmented and each fragment is located on different places (postgresql servers)? See that the Data Base is Unique, but the Data are distributed throught a horizontal partitioning. How PostgreSQL could help me to solve this problem?
