Everything about your site is in the DB. Backup and restore would be pretty useless if it wasn’t.
If it’s part of ConfigMgr, you don’t have to do anything. If its something outside of ConfigMgr, you’ll have to copy it or restore it yourself. Sending upon your site role layout, this may (or may not) include content source files, SSRS DB and custom reports, the WSUS DB. This is all covered in the backup and restore documentation: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg712697.aspx. Note that if you wait for CB 1602, a in place OS upgrade from 2008R2 will be supported (at least it is in the 1602 TP).

Or am I going to have to recreate all of that? I can backup and restore all the stuff in my source directory, no problem, but I would dread having to recreate all the packages and deployments.
