A database link can be used to connect two PolarDB for PostgreSQL(Compatible with Oracle) clusters, or connect a PolarDB for PostgreSQL(Compatible with Oracle) cluster to a user-created PostgreSQL database that is hosted on an Elastic Compute Service (ECS) instance. You can use database links to query data across clusters.

Note
  • You can create up to 10 database links for a cluster.
  • Each database link connects a source cluster and a destination cluster.
  • The source cluster and the destination cluster or the destination ECS instance must be located in the same region.
