Gridge Toolkit is an open source software initiative aimed to help users to deploy ready-to-use grid middleware services and create productive Grid infrastructures. All Gridge Toolkit software components have been integrated together and form a consistent distributed system following the same interface specification rules, license, quality assurance and testing. So, Gridge is the Grid-In-The-Box solution, that can be easily deployed on your infrastructure.  
Gridge Toolkit components have been successfully tested with different versions of Globus Toolkit ^TM as well as other core Grid middleware solutions. The Gridge Toolkit software is available for free with a full commercial support.  In addition to Gridge we offer to our partners and users:

• Technical support, consulting, training and development for Gridge Toolkit and Globus Toolkit ^TM,
• Assistance in design, deployment and configuration of grid middleware software,
• On-site installation and integration of Gridge Toolkit and Globus Toolkit ^TM key components,
• Workshop and hands-on training on ‘Grid-Enabled’ technologies.

Gridge tools and services enable applications to take advantage of dynamically changing grid environment. These tools have ability to deliver dynamic or utility computing to both, the application users and developers and resource owners. Through supporting the shared, pooled and dynamically allocated resources and services, managed by automated, policy-based Grid Resource Management System (GRMS) that interfaces with such services as Mercury monitoring system, adaptive component services, data and replica management services and others, the Gridge offers the state of the art dynamic grid features to applications. Gridge technology can be used by various kinds of businesses, including vendors, but also financial companies, service organizations etc. The anticipated benefits of these dynamic computing solutions are five-fold:

• Capital cost savings vis faster and easier dynamic grid application enabling;
• Capital cost savings via improved asset utilization;
• Operational cost savings via extensive use of policy-based automation;
• End-to-end service-level improvement due to more reliable and available systems;
• Improved business agility based on the vastly improved ability to link IT investment, use and operation to business process requirements.
