Replication is a bit of a black art. There is plenty out there on google. Really the only way to go about it is to start and experiment. The reason I say this is that the type of replication you use is dependent on lots of factors and experimentation is the best way IMHO. My position is that I have never used it myself, but have worked for companies that use it and have seen how complex it can get. I am considering using it and with the dearth of practical information out there it has become apparent to me that bar having a DBA with experience in replication at your side - experimentation is the best way.
You always pass failure on the way to success.
