In accordance with an embodiment, described herein is a system and method for providing support for custom hooks during patching in an application server, enterprise, cloud computing, or other computing environment. A patch orchestration engine generates a patching workflow including a series of steps that apply patches to update one or more targeted nodes in a controlled manner with minimal downtime. Custom hooks provide a flexible mechanism that enables modifying phases of the patching workflow that can be associated with extension points. When an extension, for example an additional Java software code, script or other command, is specified to be run at a particular extension point associated with a particular phase of a patching workflow, the patch orchestration engine causes the extension to be inserted into the patching workflow, for execution during patching of the targeted nodes, to modify that phase of the patching workflow.
