I have two databases on postgresql in different servers, one main

combine both databases on same server and split them
with different schema also to make load balance and some kind of
permissions to restrict secondary database to read whole

one have some ideas how I can do this ? Any ideas is welcome.
Your idea of two schemas in the one database is the way to go - you
cannot share tables between different databases.
Further to this point, make sure you have a different database user for each of the people or applications you want to service, give the two schemas different owners or do appropriate privilege granting in the database, to keep each person/application to just the things they should see and nothing else. -- Darren Duncan
For that sort of thing you might use dblink as well, but the separate schemas idea is way simpler and effective.
