    Solution for Oracle synonyms

    You can use dblinks in Postgresql, they are supported in a contrib package, which is also available on windows (v 8.0 only). Because in Oracle you are using a synonym to hide a dblink. What follows is an example taken from the docs: SELECT * FROM dblink('dbname=template1', 'select proname...
