1. An information management system comprising: a computing system comprising one or more computing devices including computer hardware, the computing system configured to: associate one or more of a plurality of information management cells with one or more users of the computing system; determine that an information management cell associated with a first user is un-deployed and is to be implemented as a customized deployment; provide a series of questions to the first user relating to one or more data storage requirements of the information management cell to be implemented on behalf of the first user; determine system information indicative of the one or more data storage requirements of the information management cell to be implemented on behalf of the first user, wherein the system information comprises one or more of: a number of client computing devices, a number of servers, an amount of storage capacity, and software associated with the information management cell; access an electronic database containing deployment configuration rules usable to generate recommendations for deployment configurations based on the one or more data storage requirements of the information management cell, wherein the deployment configuration rules comprise one or more of: an algorithm for generating a recommended deployment configuration and a guideline for generating a recommended deployment configuration; generate a recommended deployment configuration for the information management cell to be implemented on behalf of the first user based at least in part on the system information and the deployment configuration rules, wherein the recommended deployment configuration specifies one or more of: a number of client computing devices, a number of storage managers, a number of secondary storage computing devices, a number of media agents, and a number of storage devices; provide the recommended deployment configuration to the first user for approval or adjustment; receive computing infrastructure information relating to computer hardware components within the information management cell that are available for use in implementing the recommended deployment configuration, wherein the computing infrastructure information identifies one or more computing devices by at least one of name or IP address within the information management cell that are specified in the recommended deployment configuration; and generate an installation script for the information management cell based at least in part on the recommended deployment configuration and the computing infrastructure information, wherein execution of the installation script causes automated installation of data storage software components on the one or more computing devices within the information management cell identified by the computing infrastructure information.
