The answer to the second part is "the most recent possible." You might
even want to wait until 8.3 is out (very soon now), as a few of the
replication solutions take advantage of some new features in 8.3. A quick
overview of what's available can be found here:

Feel free to ask more questions, bearing in mind that "replication" is
a fairly generic term with no one-size-fits-all solution.
