Problem
We have PostgreSQL 11 database with structure one database one schema (public).
I would like to set up a logical replication, so that it will have structure One database, multiple schema as below:
is it possible to do logical replication as above?
I have successful replication using streaming replication, but the situation need us to use logical replication as above.
dbname : production_one
schema : public
dbname : production_two
schema : publicI would like to set up a logical replication, so that it will have structure One database, multiple schema as below:
dbname : prod_slave
schema : prod_one, prod_twois it possible to do logical replication as above?

Solution
This does not seem to be possible with built-in logical replication: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/logical-replication-subscription.html
The tables are matched between the publisher and the subscriber using
the fully qualified table name. Replication to differently-named
tables on the subscriber is not supported.
Since it uses fully qualified names, a different schema would count as a different name, and is not supported.
pub/sub is just a user friendly wrapping around a more general facility, you might be able to create decoding plugins to give you finer control. I doubt that doing so is for the faint of heart, though.
