I'm managing three separate AWS accounts and I'm thinking about bringing them under a single organization. Currently, one account handles government-related web apps, another is for DNS management, and the last one manages AWS Bedrock and billing. I haven't had much experience with AWS, so I'm looking for some advice. If I create an organization that includes all these accounts, will it affect our existing services in any way? The documentation suggests it won't, but I wanted to confirm with others who may have experience with this.

Before making any moves, it's wise to consult with a security expert. They can help you navigate the complexities involved with setting up an organization, especially when dealing with sensitive government data.
It shouldn't impact your services directly. However, if your government account is FedRAMP-compliant, mixing it with your other accounts could be a big deal. This is because your FedRAMP environment has strict oversight and controls. It's actually best to keep your FedRAMP account separate from the others—consider setting up two separate organizations, one for FedRAMP and another for your regular accounts.
I'm pretty sure you can't include your government account in the same organization as the others. AWS divides its services into different partitions for reasons like compliance and security. Government accounts are treated differently, kinda like how the China accounts work.
