Shipped enables you to build a multi-tier application to allow any application developed and distributed among more than one tier. The multi-tier app logically separates the different application-specific tier. This division allows each tier to be separately developed, tested, executed, and reused.
Shipped provides a sample multi-tier app containing the service shipped-mongo-sample-client.

You are now ready to deploy Mongo and shipped-mongo-sample-client services. The order of service deployment is important. Because Mongo has a set of default environment variables that other services depend on, therefore it is the first to be deployed. After Mongo is deployed, you can copy those variables and apply them to shipped-mongo-sample-client.
1> Click the Deployment tab.
2> Select Mongo and the environment (Test), click Deploy Build.
As we need connection string to connect our API to Mongo DB, So we need to copy the environment variable name "HOST_MONGODB_SINGLE" (naming convention "HOST"$servicename) of Mongo, which you need to set for shipped-mongo-sample-client.
3> Click Settings.
4> Scroll down to the Deployment Configurations section.
5> Copy the environment variables.
1> Click Back to Environments.
2> Click the shipped-mongo-sample-client icon, then Settings.
3> Scroll down to the Deployment Configurations section.
4> Enter HOST_MONGODB_SINGLE environment variable name and its value.
