Hi Lucy, Personally I would have somebody on-site with you who knows that she/he's doing before bringing anything to Production. It is not rocket science, but you are putting your precious data online and without the right precautions you could be at risk of losing it. Again, this is just my opinion. :)
However, there are some instructions available to get you started, e.g. here: http://arches-hip.readthedocs.io/en/latest/extra/ And especially here: http://arches-hip.readthedocs.io/en/latest/extra/#serving-your-arches-app-with-apache Regarding getting your app to your server, there are many ways. Often people use a code repository system like GIT, create a 'tag' (which is a snapshot of your code) and download it from your repository to your production server. In your case that will only be your customized app. You should to the installation of Arches and its dependencies like you did on the development server. Regarding your database, your option 2 sounds like what you should do. I assume your authority files and resource graphs are included in your custom app, so after installing Arches you would do something like: python manage.py packages -o install python manage.py packages -o load_concept_scheme -s /your-app/source_data/ concepts/authority_files I know these directions are a little fragmentary (it's hard to explain all at once), but I hope this helps.
