Hello

Where is your data located? It is in a database somewhere? Do you have
a WMS or WFS server ready to serve this data? OpenLayers runs on the
browser and relies on services to provide it with the actual data. To
access raster images, WMS is commonly used. To access vector data, WFS
is commonly used.
