How to store value to cache and update it once a day

Question

I have got some data from an API, i like to store those data to cache and update it once a day. I mean i don't like to call the API for each frontend page load. I found this function

if (!function_exists('trustedshopscachecheck')) {
    function trustedshopscachecheck($filename_cache, $timeout = 10800) {
        if (file_exists($filename_cache) && time() - filemtime($filename_cache) < $timeout)   {
            return true;
        }
        return false;
    }
}

I like to use magento cache

I'd choose a slightly different setup which will make the solution easier.

• store your value as a config value in core_config_data using Magento\Framework\App\Config\Storage\WriterInterface
• define a job in crontab.xml which overwrites this value once a day
• when you want to access the value, simply access the configuration
