I would highly suggest to jail everything, not only for the added
security, but also for maintainability.

Suggestion:
- Script everything with some CMS (I highly recommend SaltStack)
- Use ZFS (and clones) and two datasets per jail: one for the things you
  deploy with your CMS and one for the "data" (=3D things generated by
  the installed applications within the jail), with some nullfs mounts
  from the HOST into the jails. It will facilitate the updates a lot.
  At the end the goal is to be able to zfs destroy tank/jails/your_jail
  and re-create it from scratch with one command.
- With VIMAGE, tagged VLANs, some orchestration tool (SaltStack), and
  ZFS snapshots send/receive your can achieve nearly real-time
  migration.
- Use HAProxy and SNI, and manage certs from there. At work we have an
  orchestration script which 1) generate Let's Encrypt certificates in
  somejail (certbot.lan) and if it succeed 2) rsync them on the HAProxy
  nodes
