Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (9,-36,84,-126,126,-84,36,-9,1).
FORMULA
a(n) = n*(n+1)*(n+2)*(n+3)*(n+4)*(n+5)*(n+6)*(n+7).
a(n) = (n^4+14*n^3+63*n^2+98*n+28)^2 - (28+8*n)^2. (see Thill link).

From Amiram Eldar, Mar 08 2022: (Start)
Sum_{n>=1} 1/a(n) = 1/35280.
Sum_{n>=1} (-1)^(n+1)/a(n) = 8*log(2)/315 - 1163/66150. (End)
