Abstract

Techniques for performing an upgrade can include: defining integration points, each associated with a workflow processing point of an upgrade workflow; associating code entities with the integration points; and performing processing that performs the upgrade workflow to upgrade a system, wherein the upgrade includes upgrading a first feature, facility or service of the system from a current version to a new version, wherein the processing further includes: executing code corresponding to workflow processing points of the upgrade workflow, wherein a first workflow processing point of the upgrade workflow is associated with a first of the integration points; and in response to said executing reaching the first workflow processing point corresponding to the first integration point, invoking a first code entity associated with the first integration point, wherein said first code entity performs customized processing in connection with upgrading the first feature, facility or service in the system.
