Your question wasn't very clear but if you mean how you can fetch data from multiple SQL Server databases which reside on different SQL Server instances, have a look at Linked Servers[^]

Connect to each server and run this query on that server:

SQL

SELECT name
FROM master..sysdatabases

If you want to make sure that it has all the required tables run this query after that

SQL

use DataBaseName
Select Table_name 
From INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES

And if you don't know how to enumerate all available SQL Servers :

Hope it helps.
