Hello all
I want to copy the data from one table to other table. These tables reside in two different databases.
I am thinking of using following query
insert into table2 (select * from table1)
but the problem is how can I specify the database name?
You'll need to look at the dblink contrib module. Postgres does not include the ability to use cross-database queries out-of-the-box. The better way of doing what you are talking about is to use separate schemas within the same database.
