three(software) and possible exchanging data.Is it possible? if yes what is
the implication in terms of performance?

It's certainly possible. Obviously it will need a bigger machine than
you would use for just one of the databases.

Bear in mind that you can't have cross-database queries without using
something like the dblink package. I don't know if that affects your
"exchanging data".

Oh - and unless you really have no choice in the matter, use 9.1 rather
than 8.4 - you will get better performance, new features and it will be
supported for longer.

Please give us more information:
- What is three(software)?
- Can you specify how and with what you would like to exchange data?
- The implications of what compared to what?

Yours,

Yes.

As far as implications on performance, it really depends on specifics and I
don't see enough info here to comment.
