Being a noob and all I was wondering whats the real benefit of having a monolithic lets say proxmox instance with router, DNS, VPN but also home asssistant and NAS functionalitiy all in one server? I always thought dedicated devices are simpler to maintain or replace and some services are also more critical than others I guess?
Its the difference between running home things and having the money to run datacenter reliability.

Sorry, I think you’re misunderstanding what I’m saying. You can surely that, but if the host goes down, everything goes down. Single point of failure.
