A quick aside: do they really need to be separate databases? Have you
considered using schema within a single database instead? Doing things
that way has both advantages and disadvantages, so whether you want to
do it depends on your needs, but it's worth looking into.
Often, if you're pulling in data from separate databases that can be a
hint that your design is separating things into different DBs that
should perhaps be together in one.
