K3s! You could even reuse your pis in the cluster.
I would deploy it to your new server, setup your CSI (e.g longhorn its pretty simple), find a helm chart for one of the apps and try deploying it.

I understood like four of the words in your comment so I’m going to go ahead and assume that solution is too advanced for me.

K3s is an embedded Kubernetes distribution by a Californian company called Rancher, which is owned by the Enterprise Linux Giant SUSE.
Kubernetes works on the idea of masters and workers. I.e. you usually cannot bring up (“schedule”) containers (pods) on the master nodes (control nodes for brevity). K3s does away with such limitations, meaning you can just run one VM with k3s and run containers on top.
Although if Kubernetes is too hard I would push you towards Podman.
I do not know the extrapolation for CSI but Longhorn is a storage backend of Kubernetes for persistent storage across nodes
