Are you talking about queries between databases on the same postmaster
(i.e. running under the same PostgreSQL installation), or queries
between postmasters running on different systems? If the former, I don't
see how putting your data into multiple schemas in a single database is
significantly less reliable than putting it into multiple databases.
