I'm of the opinion that the devs should have responsibility for the architecture of their systems. I also think there should be a layer of authority that is making decisions that span across teams like which cloud provider (AWS, Azure, etc), programming languages, tools (git, svn, trello), integration methods between systems (service buses, event hubs), other third party services, security standards, etc.
