Migrating content in Apigee Drupal dev portal from dev environment to staging to prod

[lj_cubic]

Hi,

We have a private cloud with Apigee and are considering using Drupal based dev portal. Is there a procedure for migrating content between different environments eg. dev to QA, dev to prod, etc.?

I am a Drupal newbie and could not find anything on the web that, fully, describes what I need.

rsync + database export/import comes to mind as a possible solution, but I see issues such as avoiding config files and the list of folders/directories that would need to be rsynced (/var/www/devportal?). 

Please, keep in mind that I am a Drupal newbie when answering the quesiton. 

Your help is much appreciated.

Apigee Drupal devportal extends Drupal only, so here is the link from Drupal documentation which should be helpful.
