During the last decade, a new direction of distributed computing--the grid--emerged, which is designed for work with sets of distributed resources. The results obtained, including the development of largescale grid infrastructures, bring us to the discussion of possibility of applying the new technologies to practice. The goal of the paper is to outline a scope of grid capabilities. The discussion relies on the formulation of basic points of the grid concept, principles of integration of spatially distributed resources, and the tasks solved by the grid middleware. Based on this, forms and methods of using grid integration technologies for work with computer, file, information, and other types of resources are described.
