I'm looking at pgbouncer and it does most of what I need.
I'm wondering about clients connecting via pgadmin, is there a
way for users using pgadmin or another tool to see all the
databases that are part of the configs?
It's an issue I ran into when I set up my pgbouncer architecture,
but since all servers are reachable by the same private network
pgAdmin host is, there's no security issue in connecting directly
to them, instead of passing through pgbouncer, so I did not spend
time (that I hadn't :-)) in investigating.
If you resolve this (or someone has already done so), sharing the
solution would be much appreciated.
Cheers,

Yes, I think there are many, but I'm encouraging you to take a
look at
pgbouncer
https://pgbouncer.github.io/
in pgbouncer.ini you enter database configuration values like
database = host=hostname port=xyzk, like
mydb1 = host=cluster1 port=6543 or
mydb2 = host=cluster1 port=9876
mydb3 = host=cluster2 port=6543
but there many other parameters to refine your config (like
"proxying"
database names, so if you share names across clusters you can
easily
avoid conflicts)
Pgbouncer should be installed on the same server as the
databases or in
another and listens on a different port than Postgres' (say
5431 while
postgres is on 5432)
I'm actively using in my environment with 2 clusters and about
500
databases, works flawlessly.
One thing you have to consider, if under heavy workload (say
100's of
connections) is to raise kernel value of maximum open files
