We have lots of content, template, conent types in our DEV env. We would like to move everything including content from our DEV to PROD env. What is the best way to do it?
thanks

Content Types, Templates, Workflows and Slots you can move with MSM. Actual content is a bit harder especially if there is existing Content on Prod that has been changing.
MSM doesn’t handle large volumes of content and it doesn’t handle inline links, templates, and relationships between types. We usually recommend not doing any serious editorial on dev until the new types and templates are in prod for this reason.
If the volume is too large for copy and paste/manual recreation of content, and cloning dev over prod is not an option because active editorial was done in parallel there, you may need to write a script to export content from dev and import it into prod.
Theoretically you could also data publish, or use SQL to do this, but the problem with ID conflicts and ID overlaps between the two servers makes doing anything at the direct SQL level get messy fairly quick, is generally safer to use the API.

I was thinking to take a database dump, and a Rhythmyx tree dump from DEV env, and copying over to the PROD env.
Is there any documentation that outlines the steps for it?
