Move Content from Production to Stage

Hey All,

Is there an easier way of moving content from Prod to Stage without creating a content package in package manager and uploading and installing on Stage. We have a lot of data on over 6 different sites. As you know, content get stale and bad in Stage so about every 2 or 3 months we want to take the prod instance and install it as stage instance. I think perfect situation would be that we can take an image of Prod and bring it up as Stage. We would also like to backup content every once and a while and put it on a back up server.

Any suggestions?

Could you share more details regarding this use case?

Do you mean that you would like to have an automated process for moving content instead of manually moving using package manager or

to find an alternative for package manager, preferably an automated process

or

something else?

Do you have a plan to fix the environment/server specific content, if you create an image of prod and bring it up as stage, assuming there would still be couple scenarios like that?

Below are a couple of tools for moving content -

Look at using Package Manager API to programmatically create a package.

"The Adobe AEM Quickstart and Web Application."

That way, you can automate this process.
