How to serve files from gridfs using nginx (mongo 3.0)?

Question

Is there any alternative to nginx-gridfs that can work with mongodb 3.0 with speed comparable to serving static files using only nginx?

Answer 1

There's a GridFS Fuse package. You can mount your GridFS files as a directory then just configure nginx to serve files from it as normal. I've never used it though and have no idea what the performance might be like.
