4.17) How do I perform queries using multiple databases?
There is no way to query a database other than the current one. Because
PostgreSQL loads database-specific system catalogs, it is uncertain how
a cross-database query should even behave.

contrib/dblink allows cross-database queries using function calls. Of
course, a client can also make simultaneous connections to different
databases and merge the results on the client side.
