<!--HTML-->XRootD is a distributed scalable system for low-latency file access. It is primary data access framework for the high-energy physics community, and the foundation of EOS project. In this contribution we give an overview of the release 5. In particular, we discuss the TLS based, secure version of the xroot/root protocol and the several enhance tailor made for EOS, like the so-called redirect collapse, I/O error recovery at MGM and kernel buffer support.
