The Content staging module allows you to separate the content in development, staging (editing) and production (live) environment. It allows you to easily transfer  document and object changes to another server or make a complete synchronization of documents and objects from one server to another. You can synchronize documents and objects to multiple production servers with separate databases. The synchronized data is transferred over a secured web service.

The Staging module supports synchronization of the following data:

 

Document data
Document attachments – if document contains the file fields, the files are synchronized together with the document.
Document relationships – if specified relationship and related document exist on the target server, the relationship is also synchronized
Workflow process – only published document versions are synchronized to the target server and both servers need to have the same workflow schemas defined
Global objects
Custom tables and data stored in them
Media libraries and the files and folders in them

 

The Staging module does not support synchronization of the following data:

 

BizForms data, the forms themselves are synchronized
Forum posts, the forums themselves are synchronized
Message boards messages, the boards themselves are synchronized
Blog comments, the blogs themselves are synchronized
Friends
Messaging module messages
ACLs (document permissions)
Web templates
Abuse reports
Web analytics
Event log
Export history

 

You need to ensure that both staging and production site use the same settings (document types, templates, web parts …), code files and that both servers use the same version of the CMS.
