This is what we're using , don't forget to install db_link module

select * from dblink('host=1192.168.1.1 dbname=mydb port=5432 user=myuser password=my_password', 'select name from country') as t1 (proname name, prosrc text);

Best Regards...

Closest thing we've got is foreign tables based on the postgres_fdw
foreign data wrapper (or you could use a different wrapper if you
want to link to a non-Postgres database).
