I run Adguard Home containers (the primary auto-syncs to the secondary) and use redirect filters to assign hostnames to each of my containers. I have a "services" folder of bookmarks for each container host so I don't have to remember each service's port number. I use KeePassXC to track all my passwords and certificates so authentication is a breeze (someday I'll get around to setting up an SSO solution). I also keep a .txt file with my basic network info that doesn't always translate well to dns hostname redirects in adguard. I occassionally remember to update my hosts listed in the file. My individual config files aren't backed up beyond my automated container backups, but so far none of my services have been that complicated I couldn't just rebuild from scratch.
It's not perfect, but combined with my automated backups I have barely enough to rebuild if/when my hardware fails.
