The dgrid was introduced with the 1.7 release of Dojo and is a simplified, improved replacement for the older dojox data grid. The dgrid is not normally included with Dojo. The usual workflow is to download dgrid from the GitHub and host it yourself. To ease use of the dgrid, Esri packages it with the ArcGIS API for JavaScript to make things easier for developers. Instead of having to download and host the dgrid modules yourself, you can simply require() them after you've included the ArcGIS API for JavaScript in your page.
This sample connects a dgrid to a Feature Layer. When a cell containing a feature ID is clicked, the corresponding feature is highlighted on the map.
