No. Parse uses it's own framework

none of the network api calls and requests would work, you would have to change all that over to use whatever service you are on.

couldnt really tell you about the scalability of parse. You would definitely have to upgrade to the enterprise plan though with that many users

Parse is intended to scale well and supports popular apps like those featured on their site:

Instagram isn't a fair comparison because it is SO huge. :) I'm sure they have their own very scalable backend. But Parse seems pretty impressive at scale, too.
