Quite an expansive question there;

First question is what format is your data in?
For just a text file look at [1],
for kml look at [2],
for most other geographical information you'll have to use a server to
server your data out (i.e. wms / wfs / wmts etc).
Examples of that sort of server are geoserver [3].

All pretty straight forward to use.

1. http://openlayers.org/dev/examples/markersTextLayer.html
2. http://openlayers.org/dev/examples/kml-layer.html
3. http://geoserver.org

In general have a look around the examples;
http://openlayers.org/dev/examples and read the openlayers user guide
http://trac.osgeo.org/openlayers/wiki/Documentation.
