I want to keep my three applications as separate as possible so one
application can't possibly access information in another.
I am leaning towards putting everything on one database using
different schemas to keep the data separate.

That seems like a good idea. Possibly simpler too.

Like giving permissions to each app to specific tables. I guess that
would be good as well.
