History
Datability was founded in 1977 as a software consulting company, especially in the area of databases. To speed up project development they built a program generator, which they marketed as Control 10/20 (targeted at users of Digital Equipment Corporation's DECsystem-10 and DECSYSTEM-20). After trying their hand at Time-sharing they built hardware to enhance bridging these computers to DEC<nowiki />'s VAX product line. In particular they focused on Digital<nowiki />'s LAT protocol, selling "boxes" that reimplemented the protocol, at a lower price than DEC's.<ref name=Datability.DigiNews89/>
