Right, you could use OAI-PMH harvesting, however you would probably need to set up harvesting for each collection individually. This should detect only changed items.
If you prefer a programming approach, there are event dispatchers (senders) and consumers (receivers). For example, there is a consumer which listens to the event of a newly created item and will add it to the index. There is also a consumer that will delete an item from the index when it's deleted from the archive, too. You could write some custom code which listens to these events in one repository and communicates the changes to the other repository. This might actually have some interesting use cases, so if you decide to work on this, do let us know! If you don't need real-time synchronization, AIP export/import should do. You could also consider combining the listener approach with export/import of AIP packages for single items, that should save you a lot of work on the import/export code.
