✅

Does it make sense using both fabric and ansible tools somehow?

Yes. All your logic should live in Ansible and you can use Fabric as a lightweight wrapper around it.

fab deploy

is easier to remember than, e.g.

ansible-playbook -v --inventory=production --tags=app site.yml

Is it possible to use ansible from my windows development environment to deploy to production centos(6/7) servers?

Sounds like you can’t. Alternatively, If you use Fabric, it could copy your ansible playbooks up to a server (or pull directly from git) and run ansible from there.
