I assume/hope you have good, tested, off-site backups if the important data & config…

I run my stuff from home too, though it is smaller scale than yours currently. Off-site & soft-offline backups are on encrypted volumes on servers & VMs elsewhere.

The backup server in my home is the offsite backup. The primary data lives in the datacenter.

Until recently my home server was not capable in many respects to the outside machines (picked for cheap storage, not CPU/RAM considerations, going with the "redundant array of inexpensive backup locations" method), but I do currently have a variable dedicated server that might see some live workloads moved to it.
