Answer: D

Explanation:

When you bind a service to your application Bluemix will add details about the service to an environment

variable VCAP_SERVICES. VCAP_SERVICES allows your application to discover bound services and how to access the service.

User-provided services (private to an organization) can be created – accessed the same way as a Bluemix provided service.
