The concept of a federated database has been around since the 1980's,
if I can believe wikipedia.

I do not know of any libre (or even merely gratis) project providing
database federation services.  I think it would be a really big job,
something more suitable for a project of its own rather than something
to do within LibreOffice.  IIRC, Brian Bruns has expressed an interest
in getting such a project going.
