At the top of the Illustration Style image, Long Live the Data Center Queen

Hand-drawn illustration with fine linework, textured brush strokes, and a warm, expressive holiday palette. Center the scene on Sue, a British woman in her late 70s with short grey hair and a poised, kind expression, sitting gracefully in a cozy, throne-like velvet armchair (deep burgundy with carved wood). She wears a classy winter coat (rich emerald wool with subtle festive trim) and cradles a delicate bone-china teacup and saucer with tiny holly motifs; gentle steam curls up in elegant swirls.

Behind her, arrange symmetrical rows of sleek server racks standing like royal guards along a softly lit corridor. Tastefully weave warm, subtle Christmas fairy lights through cable runs; let server LEDs twinkle like ornaments. A gentle glowing crown made of looping fiber optic strands floats above her head, softly radiant in pearly whites and hints of rainbow, casting a halo-like glow.

Add small, witty details that stay elegant: a corgi at her feet wearing a tiny “IT support” lanyard; ethernet cables draped like minimalist garlands; a polished floor reflecting the warm light; faint snowflake bokeh drifting through the background from a frosted window. Lighting is golden and regal, with soft vignetting and delicate brush textures; composition is balanced and stately, front-facing as if in a festive royal portrait.

Typography for the headline: elegant, hand-lettered serif with gold-foil effect and a subtle fiber-optic twinkle, gently arched above the scene. Keep the overall mood respectful, regal, and gently funny—more knowing smile than slapstick. No brand logos.

At the bottom in a small, cheeky line, set in warm-gold monospace for a tech nod: All Hail Her High-Availability.
