That highly depends on the usecase, but the most convenient way is using content packages [1].

Hi @Jorg Hos, thanks for your reply,

In my case there are huge amount of data, which need to be sync with other AEM instance, so creating package, uploading and installing is time taken process, and some times packages does not create for large data.

I am looking for different solution like garbbit, since grabbit does not support in AEM 6.4.

Thank you !!

You could split the content into multiple packages... But of course grabit would be better.

You could also use crx2oak to extract content from one repo and import it into another (https://helpx.adobe.com/experience-manager/6-4/sites/deploying/using/using-crx2oak.html ); although I am not 100% sure if that's fully supported, you can give it a try and experiment with it.

You can use vlt or crx2oak. Both should work.

You would have to run manually those commands but if you are thinking of automation, you can consider a shell script running as cron job and using those command internally.

Have you looked at Grabbit? GitHub - TWCable/grabbit: Grabbit - Fast Content Sync tool for AEM/CQ

I work with the group that created it at TWC.  It hasn't been updated in a while but still works well.  We run it daily to keep our UAT environment in sync with production.  Very helpful
