It's a very common Oracle-ism to have a lot of tablespaces, in part because
(IIRC) Oracle makes it an incredible pain in the neck to add tablespaces once
the DB is in use. For sharding purposes, you probably want schemas in
PostgreSQL instead of tablespaces, although having that many schemas is going
to not be optimal, either.
